Abby's White Chili (Low Fat)
- 2 teaspoons olive oil
- 1 12 cups onions
- 1 cup celery, diced
- 1 tablespoon garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon chili powder
- 2 teaspoons cumin
- 2 teaspoons oregano
- 12 teaspoon coriander
- 14 cup flour
- 3 cups chicken broth
- 1 (14 ounce) can evaporated 2% milk
- 3 (19 ounce) cans white beans, rinsed and drained (or a combination of black, chickpea, red kidney beans)
- 1 (4 1/2 ounce) can green chilies, chopped
- 12 teaspoon salt and pepper
- 14 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1 cup sour cream
- 2 tablespoons cilantro
- 3 cups cooked brown rice (or gourmet blend of wild rice with mixed brown rice)
- Heat stock pot slightly then add Pam.
- Add olive oil and add onions, celery and garlic.
- Cook and stir for 4 - 5 minutes, until veggies are softened.
- Add chili powder, cumin, oregano and coriander to veggies.
- Mix well and cook for 1 minute.
- Add flour and stir until veggies is well coated.
- Stir in broth and evaporated milk.
- Bring mixture to a boil.
- Redeuce heat to medium and simmer, uncovered for 5 minutes.
- Add beans, green chilies, salt pepper and cayenne pepper to veggies.
- Reduce heat to medium low; cover and simmer for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Remove chili from heat.
- Stir in sour cream and cilantro.
- Serving suggestions: I sometimes will cook a chicken breast for 30 minutes in my toaster oven, cut it into cubes and add half for a single serving of chili.
- I sometimes add 1/2 cup lentils; adding more broth if it gets too thick.
- I like to serve the chili with a gourmet blend of wild rice with mixed brown rice (I don't know if it is readily available elsewhere) -- which makes a wonderful nutty addition to the meal.
- White Chicken Chili: Four boneless chicken breast could be added.
- Cube the chicken and cook it for 3 - 4 minutes, or until no longer pink (as in step one).
- Add onions, celery and garlic -- then continue with the rest of the steps.
- Can garnish with cheddar or Monterey Jack cheese and chopped green onions.
