Ingredients

  • Olive Oil: 2 tablespoons
  • Yellow Onion: 1, diced
  • Garlic: 2 cloves, minced
  • Southwest Seasoning: 2 tablespoons (see recipe below)
  • Green Chilies: 2 (4oz) cans, diced
  • Chicken Broth: 4 cups
  • Shredded Cheese (Mexican Blend): 4 cups
  • Frozen Corn: 1 cup
  • Cannellini Beans: 2 (15 oz) cans, rinsed
  • Rotisserie Chicken: 1 whole, shredded (about 2 1/2 cups)
  • Lime Juice: 2 tablespoons
  • Fresh Cilantro: 2 tablespoons, chopped
  • Sour Cream: 1 cup

Southwest Seasoning:

  • Chili Powder: 2 teaspoons
  • Cumin: 1 teaspoon
  • Paprika: 1 teaspoon
  • Oregano: 1/2 teaspoon
  • Onion Powder: 1/2 teaspoon
  • Garlic Powder: 1/2 teaspoon
  • Black Pepper: 1/2 teaspoon
  • Salt: 1 teaspoon

Instructions

  • Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add diced onion and sauté until softened.
  • Stir in minced garlic and cook for another minute.
  • Add the Southwest seasoning and green chilies, cooking for 2-3 minutes until fragrant.
  • Pour in chicken broth and bring to a simmer.
  • Stir in the shredded chicken, cannellini beans, corn, and lime juice. Cook for 10-15 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
  • Reduce heat to low and stir in the shredded cheese, sour cream, and cilantro until the cheese is melted and the chili is creamy.
  • Serve hot, garnished with additional cilantro or cheese if desired.

Notes

  • For a spicier version, add a diced jalapeño with the onions.
  • You can use fresh corn instead of frozen for a sweeter flavor.
  • This chili can be made ahead and reheated; it tastes even better the next day.
