Method
 

How to Make Ultimate Cozy White Chicken Chili
  1. Dice the boneless skinless chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces. In a large pot, heat a drizzle of oil over medium-high heat and sauté the chicken until it’s golden brown, approximately 6-8 minutes.
  2. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the pot. Cook until the onion turns translucent, about 5 minutes.
  3. Stir in the drained white beans, ground cumin, and diced green chiles. Mix everything well.
  4. Pour in the chicken broth and raise the heat to bring it to a gentle simmer. Let it bubble away for about 15 minutes.
  5. Taste your chili and add additional cumin or red pepper flakes for a little heat.
  6. Ladle the chili into bowls and top with fresh cilantro, a dollop of sour cream, or shredded cheese.
  7. Serve with crunchy corn chips for an extra delightful texture.

Notes

Allowing the chili to sit for a few minutes enhances the flavors. For a slow cooker option, combine all ingredients and cook on low for 6-8 hours.
