Hearty White Chicken Chili: A One-Pot Wonder

Step 1

Begin by warming olive oil in a generously sized pot on medium heat. Toss in chicken, garlic, chives, oregano, thyme, basil, a pinch of salt, a dash of pepper, and a bay leaf. Cook and stir until the chicken is cooked through and juices are clear, which should take about 5 to 8 minutes.

Step 2

Next, add 3 cans of great Northern beans, some water, chopped tomatoes, and your favorite salsa. Lower the heat and let the mixture simmer, giving it an occasional stir to meld the flavors together, for approximately 1 hour.

Step 3

Once the hour is up, sprinkle in the remaining 2 cans of great Northern beans and a dollop of sour cream. Turn up the heat slightly and let it simmer until the stew thickens, which usually takes around 25 minutes.

Step 4

Finally, serve this hearty dish by ladling it into bowls, and enjoy the warm and comforting flavors that have come together beautifully in this dish.
