Recipe Review-White Chicken Chili from

It is finally fall here in NC. You can feel the weather trying to change but it is still hot. I am waiting impatiently for the cooler weather. I had read an article about White Chicken and Wine Pairing and I thought I should try that. Just maybe if I do this it will bring the cooler weather. I can hope.

I selected a recipe from a site called Cooking Classy. Let’s get started.

I gathered my ingredients

Nice and creamy!

I loved this wine!

I really enjoyed this recipe. It is comfort food on a cold fall or winter evening.

Happy Cooking Everyone!

Servings 6

Ingredients

1 small yellow onion diced

1 tbsp olive oil

2 cloves garlic, finely minced

2 (14.5 oz) cans low-sodium chicken broth (I used a 32 oz container and I did not use low sodium)

1 (7 oz) can diced green chilies

1 1/2 tsp cumin

1/2 tsp paprika

1/2 tsp dried oregano

1/2 tsp ground coriander

1/4 tsp cayenne pepper

salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

1 (8 oz) pkg Neufchatel cheese (aka light cream cheese), cut into small cubes

1 1/4 cup frozen or fresh corn

2 (15 oz) cans cannellini beans

2 1/2 cups shredded cooked rotisserie or left-over chicken (I used one rotisserie chicken)

1 Tbsp fresh lime juice

2 Tbsp chopped fresh cilantro, plus more for serving

Tortilla chips or strips, Monterrey jack cheese, sliced avocado for serving (optional) (I served with crusty bread and Monterrey Jack Cheese)

Instructions

Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add onion and saute for 4 minutes. Add garlic and saute 30 seconds longer.

Add chicken broth, green chilies, cumin, paprika, oregano, coriander, cayenne pepper, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Bring mixture just to a boil then reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 15 minutes.

Drain and rinse beans in a fine-mesh strainer or colander then measure out 1 cup. Set whole beans aside, transfer 1 cup beans to a food processor along with 1/4 cup broth from soup, puree until nearly smooth. (I used a blender)
