CHICKEN CHILI

Steps:

• Cook the onions in the oil over medium-low heat for 10 to 15 minutes, until translucent. Add the garlic and cook for 1 more minute. Add the bell peppers, chili powder, cumin, red pepper flakes, cayenne, and salt. Cook for 1 minute. Crush the tomatoes by hand or in batches in a food processor fitted with a steel blade (pulse 6 to 8 times). Add to the pot with the basil. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer, uncovered, for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Rub the chicken breasts with olive oil and place them on a baking sheet. Sprinkle generously with salt and pepper. Roast the chicken for 35 to 40 minutes, until just cooked. Let cool slightly. Separate the meat from the bones and skin and cut it into 3/4-inch chunks. Add to the chili and simmer, uncovered, for another 20 minutes. Serve with the toppings, or refrigerate and reheat gently before serving.

SLOW COOKER WHITE CHICKEN CHILI

Steps:

• In a large Dutch oven, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the onion, season with salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is softened and translucent, about 8 minutes. Add the garlic and jalapeño and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the chopped green chiles, cumin, onion powder, oregano and cayenne and stir until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Transfer the mixture into a 5- to 8-quart slow cooker. Generously season the chicken thighs with salt and add them to the pot. Stir in 3 cups chicken stock and the beans. Cover and cook on low until the chicken is tender, 4 to 6 hours.
• Shred the chicken using two forks. (You can do this directly in the pot, or remove the chicken to a bowl, shred it, then return it to the pot.) Stir in the frozen corn, cover and cook until warmed through, about 10 minutes. Stir in the cilantro, if using, and lime juice. Season to taste with salt. Serve in bowls and pass the toppings at the table.

ROASTED VEGETABLE CHICKEN CHILI WITH AVOCADO

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
• Bring the chicken broth and the cauliflower to a boil in a large covered pot. Boil until cauliflower is VERY soft. They should feel like potatoes ready to be mashed when you stick a fork in them. Once cauliflower is soft, put mixture into blender and blend until smooth (this will take a couple of batches). Return to pot. Note: anytime you put something hot into a blender, take the center out of the lid and cover it with a clean towel or you could have a real mess on your hands!
• Meanwhile, on a large baking sheet (or two) put the peppers, onions, corn and jalapenos (I used a piece of tin foil to keep the jalapenos separated from everything else). The broth that I used, though low sodium, still tasted kind of salty to me for some reason, so I didn't season my vegetables at all. However, if you feel like you veggies need a little s & p, go for it. Roast veggies for about 20 minutes or so, stirring occasionally until they soften and gain some charred spots.
• Once this happens, remove from oven and let cool for a few minutes. Once they're cool enough to handle, chop the peppers, jalapenos and onions into bite sized pieces. Using a chefs knife, cut the kernels off of the ears of corn. (I always stick a corn holder on one end to make it easier to hold onto).
• To the pot of creamy broth, add the shredded chicken, corn, peppers, onions, jalapenos (if using, or you could add them to individual bowls), beans and seasonings and heat through. When ready to serve, stir in the cilantro. To each bowl, add 1/4 of a small - medium avocado, diced.
