White Chili

It’s time for another recipe – this one is one of my family’s favorites.  I obviously don’t fix it often enough because when someone took a spoonful of white chili this evening at dinner, he chortled with delight and said, “This is so good!”

That made me smile!  I hope you all enjoy the recipe – it’s easy, delicious, and obviously makes you smile when you eat it!

1 ½ lbs. chicken – cubed (canned chicken works well in this)

1 small onion – diced

1-2 cloves garlic – minced (to taste, or use garlic powder)

½ tsp. ginger

½ tsp. salt

½ tsp. sage

½ tsp. cumin

½ tsp. pepper

2 cans white beans

2 cups chicken broth

Sauté chicken (unless using canned), onion, garlic in a little olive oil.

Add the rest of the spices and chicken broth.  Simmer.

3 Tbls. butter

¼ cup flour

Whisk together – stir in and blend into chili until thick.

Serve with a great big green salad and warm cornbread with honey butter.
