Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 2 cups chopped yellow onions, (from 2 medium onions)
- 1 red bell pepper, (diced)
- 6 medium cloves garlic, (minced)
- 2 pounds ground chicken ((preferably not labeled "lean"))
- 3 tablespoons chili powder ((see note))
- 1 tablespoon ground cumin
- 2 teaspoons ground coriander
- ¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes ((omit for milder chili))
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 2 (26-oz) cartons Pomi chopped tomatoes or two (28-oz/794-g) cans chopped or diced tomatoes
- 2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 1 (15 oz) can cannellini beans, drained and rinsed
Steps
-
Heat the oil in a large nonreactive pot over medium heat. Add the onions and red bell pepper and cook, stirring frequently, until softened, 8 to 10 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring to prevent garlic from burning, about two minutes more.
-
Increase the heat to medium-high. Add the ground chicken, chili powder, cumin, coriander, red pepper flakes, oregano, cayenne pepper, and salt. As the chicken cooks, use a wooden spoon to break the meat into very small clumps; cook until no longer pink, about 5 minutes.
-
Add the tomatoes, chicken broth, and sugar. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer, partially covered with lid ajar, for about one hour, stirring occasionally.
-
Stir in the white beans and simmer, uncovered for about 50 minutes more, or until the meat is tender and the flavors are well combined. For a soupier chili, you can add additional water. For a thicker chili, simmer uncovered until desired consistency is reached. Taste and add more salt if necessary.
