White Chili

 I took the recipe from Pioneer Woman, and made it a little easier. Still, she gets the credit. Her recipes never fail!

Buy a pre-roasted chicken and tear all the meat off.

Pour a bit of olive oil in a many quart pot. Add:

• Diced yellow (I like sweet) onion
• 4 cloves minced garlic
• 2 cans chopped green chilis (strained)

After 2 minutes, add:

• 2 cans Northern beans (strained)
• 8 cups chicken broth
• diced up jalapeño - use as much as you like!
• 1 1/2 T cumin
• 1/2 t paprika
• 1/2 t cayenne pepper
• white pepper and salt to taste

Get it simmering and add:

• the torn off chicken (which is torn to bite size pieces)
• 1 cup milk that is thickened with 2 T corn meal

I cooked it for about 90 minutes to thicken it on low to medium heat. Right before serving, add:

• 1 cup shredded monterey jack

 I served this with the cornbread from Simply that is mixed with chilis, cheese, and corn.

Amazing!
