Tito Jorge's Chicken Chili


This Chili is healthy and easy to prepare ... Give it a try!


Ingredients:
1 pound ground Chicken (can substitute groundTurkey)
1 pound Boneless / Skinless Chicken Thighs or Breasts (cut into cubes)
2 cans (15oz) Navy Beans
1 can (10oz) Diced tomatos
1 Onion (diced)
3 cloves Garlic (diced)
3 large Anaheim peppers (diced)
1 large Jalapino pepper (diced)
1/4 cup Tomatillo sauce (can use fresh Tomatillos if you can find them OR can also use Green Salsa)
2 tablespoons all purpose flour (I use Wondra)


The amounts in this recipe are perfect for a 14" Cast Iron wok ... but you can use a Dutch oven or large pot ...

Brown the meat and add Onion and garlic - cook until the onions are translucent.
Sprinkle in all purpose flour to make a rue (you may need more or less - Just sprinkle it in until it "looks right").

Add the Navy Beans undrained.

Add the rest of the ingredients and bring to a boil.


Reduce the heat, cover and simmer on "low" for an hour or two - or until it just "looks right"...

This is the same basic recipe as my Chili Verde with some small adjustments.
You can substitute any kind of meat you like or tweak the ingredients as much as you want but this works pretty good ...

         Remember ...

You're the Boss of your own Chili!
