Method
- Sauté Aromatics:
- In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the onion and sauté until softened, about 3-4 minutes. Stir in the garlic and cook for another 30 seconds.
- Combine Ingredients:
- Add the shredded chicken, white beans, green chilies, and chicken broth to the pot. Stir in the cumin, chili powder, paprika, oregano, salt, and pepper.
- Simmer:
- Bring the chili to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and let it simmer for 20 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
- Make It Creamy:
- Stir in the heavy cream and Monterey Jack cheese. Cook on low heat until the cheese is melted and the chili is creamy, about 5 minutes.
- Serve:
- Ladle the chili into bowls and serve hot. Garnish with your favorite toppings.
Notes
Rotisserie Chicken Shortcut: Use store-bought rotisserie chicken for a quick and easy option.
Thicker Chili: For a thicker consistency, mash some of the beans with a fork before adding them to the pot.
