Fiery Chicken Chili
vegetable cooking spray2 tsp vegetable oil
4 c. coarsely chopped onion
1 1/2 c. coarsely chopped green pepper
4 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
1 1/2 lbs skinned, boned chicken breast, cut into 1/4" pcs
(I buy a pound or so of skinless, boneless chicken breast - I'm lazy)
1/4 c. chili powder
1 tsp ground cumin
2 tsp ground coriander
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
2 (14 1/2 oz) cans no-salt-added tomatoes, undrained and chopped
1 (6 oz) can tomato paste
1 (10 1/2 oz) can low-salt chicken broth
1 (12 oz) can beer (or use another can of low salt broth
or some white cooking wine )
1 bay leaf
2 (15 oz) cans garbanzo beans, drained
(This is definitely a recipe where you need to have everything chopped and
measured out before you start cooking - because once you start cooking, it
goes fast. You'll burn or get your veggies too soggy if you don't....)
Coat a large dutch oven with cooking spray, add oil. Place on medium high
heat and heat until hot. Add onion, bell pepper, garlic; saute 5 min or
until tender, stirring frequently. Add chicken and cook 2 minutes or until
browned, stirring constantly.
Add chili powder, ground cumin, coriander, salt and cayenne. Cook 1 minute,
stirring constantly. Add chopped tomatoes, tomato paste, beer, broth, and
bay leaf. Cover, reduce heat, simmer 40 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add
beans; cook, uncovered, an additional 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Discard bay leaf.
