Equipment

large pot

Ingredients

1 tablespoon olive oil
1.5 lbs chicken diced
1 large onion chopped
4 cloves garlic minced
3 stalks celery chopped
2 bell peppers I used green and yellow, sliced
1 jalapeno sliced and seeded if desired
1 tablespoon cumin
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1 teaspoon chili powder
2 14- ounce cans no salt added white beans
6 cups no-salt-added chicken stock
4 ounces cream cheese
2 limes juiced
Toppings of choice: I used cilantro green onion, and extra jalapeno peppers

Instructions

In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped chicken and cook for 10-12 minutes, until chicken begins to brown and is cooked through. Remove the chicken from the pot and set aside.
To the same pot, add the onion, garlic, and celery. Sauté for 7-8 minutes until vegetables begin to soften. Add the sliced bell peppers and jalapenos and sauté for an additional 5 minutes.
To the pot, add the cumin, smoked paprika, chili powder, white beans and chicken stock. Bring to a boil, and add the cooked chicken back to the pot. Reduce to a simmer, and allow the chili to cook for 30 minutes, covered.
Remove the lid, and stir in the cream cheese and lime juice, and stir until the cream cheese has melted into the chili.
Serve hot with your favorite toppings: I used cilantro, green onion, and jalapeno peppers, and a little extra lime. Refrigerate leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
