White Chicken Chili

• Chili
• 3 cooked chicken breasts (or the meat from a rotisserie chicken), cut into bite-size chunks
• 15 ounces can pinto beans, drained
• 15 ounces can cannelini beans, drained
• 7 ounces salsa verde (I use Herdez)
• 8 ounces can diced green chiles
• 4 cups quality chicken stock
• 2/3 cup heavy cream
• 1 small yellow onion, chopped
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 2 teaspoons ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon ground coriander
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon chili powder
• 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
• 1/8-1/4 teaspoons ground cayenne (to taste)
• 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
• 2 teaspoons kosher or coarse sea salt
• Toppings
• 2 ripe avocados
• 1/2 fresh lime
• 1 teaspoon olive oil
• 1/2 teaspoon kosher or coarse sea salt
• 8 ounces sour cream
• 8 ounces shredded sharp cheddar cheese
• 1/2 bunch cilantro, coarsely chopped
• few handfuls tortilla chips (I love sweet potato tortilla chips with this)

1. In large stockpot, saute onion in oil over medium heat 3-4 minutes. Add garlic and cook one minute more, then add beans, salsa, and green chiles and stir well. Add chicken stock, cream, and all seasonings and bring to simmer. Simmer lightly for 10-15 minutes to allow flavors to come together. Add cooked chicken, stir, and simmer just til heated through. Taste once more for seasoning and add salt and pepper as desired.
2. While chili is simmering, remove pit and peel from avocados and roughly chop the flesh. Place in small bowl with the juice of the half a lime, olive oil, and salt. Mix well and set aside, then prepare other toppings as needed. Serve hot bowls of chili with mix-ins as desired.
3. Note: this chili finishes with a thin consistency more like chicken soup than a traditional red beef chili. The melted cheese and sour cream provide some additional texture, and that's plenty for me. However, if you prefer a thicker chili, there's an easy fix. At the start of the recipe, add an extra can of cannelini beans. Once you've added stock, cream, and seasonings, but before adding chicken, use an immersion blender to puree the beans and create a richer consistency. Continue recipe as above.
