White Chicken Chili

Intro and Overview…

This is one of my sister’s go-to soup recipes. While the original white chicken chili recipe called for cooking and then shredding the chicken, we prefer using rotisserie or pre-shredded chicken. The original recipe also called for nondescript green chilies, but we know that when it comes to green chilies, Hatch Green Chilies are a must. Yeah, when you live in the Southwest, you know these things.

 

Stuff You Need…

  • 4 Cups Chicken, cooked and shredded
  • 4 Cups Chicken Stock
  • 1 Clove Garlic, minced
  • 1 Med White Onion, diced
  • 1 Can White Beans, drained
  • 1 Can Hatch Green Chilies
  • 1 tspn dried oregano
  • 1 tspn ground cumin
  • 1 tspn chili powder
  • 1 tspn kosher salt
  • 1 tspn black pepper
  • 1 tspn fresh oregano, chopped

 

And Then…

Add chicken and chicken stock to a large pot. Add garlic, onion, beans, chilies, dried oregano, cumin, chili powder, salt, pepper, and fresh oregano. 

Simmer over medium-low heat for about five minutes. Season to taste.
