White Chicken Chili (Dairy-Free)

Warm up with a bowl of this ultra creamy, comforting & a little bit spicy chili. It's a perfect option for Superbowl Sunday or meal prep!

This white chicken chili recipes is perfect for the people (like me) who aren't fans of traditional chili. I find the acidity in tomato sauces hurts my stomach so I generally avoid if I can, plus I much prefer creamy sauces anyway!

This dairy-free chili will be a crowd pleaser at your Superbowl party! Serve it along side some of my appetizers recipes like Everything Snack Mix, Chicken & Mango Rice Paper Rolls w Peanut Sauce and Prosciutto wrapped Asparagus Cigars & you'll be getting asked to host again next year!

White Chicken Chili (Dairy-free)

Makes 2 Litres

What you'll need:

1 lb ground chicken

2 medium onions, diced

4 garlic cloves minced

1 jalapeno, minced (remove the seeds for less heat)

2 tsp ground cumin

1/2 tsp paprika

1 tsp dried oregano

1/4 tsp cayenne pepper

2 cups chicken broth

1 540ml can white beans (white kidney beans, cannellini beans or navvy beans), drained and rinsed

1 can creamed corn

1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro + more for garnish

1 lime, juiced + more wedges for serving

Steps:

Add 1 lb ground chicken to a large pot or dutch oven over medium heat, crumbing into pieces as it cooks. When the chicken is almost cooked through add 2 diced onions to the pot. Cook until the onions are translucent then add 4 cloves of minced garlic, 1 minced jalapeno, 2 tsp ground cumin, 1/2 tsp paprika and 1/4 tsp cayenne. Cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly. Stir in 2 cups of chicken broth and bring to a boil.

While you're waiting for the mixture to come to a boil transfer 1/2 the can of drained and rinsed white beans to a blender or food processor. Blend until smooth.

When the pot is boiling, add the pureed and the whole beans to the pot along with 1 can of creamed corn. Simmer for 20 minutes.

After 20 minutes, remove from heat, stir in 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro & the juice of 1 lime.

Ladle into bowls & serve with lime wedges, extra cilantro and avocado if desired.

Enjoy my friends!
