I've told y'all before that I'm no goddess in the kitchen. As in...I put in little to no effort in the cooking department until we moved to Wilmington. I'm still a novice! So 5 ingredients to me means...bingo! I'll give it a try.
Some Pinterest recipes are go-tos. Some are flops. This one was a victory by a mile. Within a few bites, Mark was telling me how good it was and added that it should be on the list of things to make again.
Here is the recipe I used (and how I adapted it because I am so savvy I didn't want to go to the store)!
Ingredients
6 cups chicken broth (I used vegetable broth!)
4 cups cooked shredded chicken (I used a Rotisserie chicken breast...on Vic special at Harris Teeter!)
2 (15-oz) cans Great Northern beans, drained (Didn't have any in the cabinet, so I modified with 1 can of navy beans and 1 can of chick peas!)
2 cups salsa verde (storebought or homemade) (Store bought! The secret ingredient!!!!)
2 tsp. ground cumin (One of my favorite spices. Secret ingredient #2!)
Optional toppings: diced avocado, chopped fresh cilantro, shredded cheese, chopped green onions, sour cream, crumbled tortilla chips
Instructions:
Add chicken broth, shredded chicken, beans, salsa and cumin to a medium saucepan, and stir to combine. Heat over medium-high heat until boiling, then cover and reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for at least 5 minutes. Serve warm with desired toppings.
My attempt! Woohoo!
I'm telling y'all...even with my non-chef-status modifications...it was SO GOOD. We added avocado and sour cream. I added cheese to the hubby's as well. The salsa and the cumin are what do the trick to the chili's kick, if you ask me!
I made basically the exact same meal last evening with ground turkey instead of chicken. How are we not blood? I'm right there with you on the cooking. Still trying to figure it all out! Thank goodness for patient husbands :) Xo!
ReplyDeleteThis looks amazing. I must try this soon!
ReplyDeleteThat looks really good! A nice variation from regular chilli. I need to try this. And you're not alone with the cooking. I can follow a recipe really good, but that's about it. Hubby is the chef in our family, he's an awesome cook!
ReplyDeleteI make a similar chili but I add some heavy whipping cream and greek yogurt(or sour cream) at the end to make it creamier. I love soups and thanks for sharing this one!
ReplyDeleteI love a good Pinterest success story! Glad that this one was delish :)
ReplyDeleteYum - I am a huge soup lover so this one will definitely be made!
ReplyDeleteYum! I can't wait to make this at home!!

ReplyDeleteI always default to the traditional chili with tomatos, beef and beans... I might have to give this one a go, especially if it gets cold again! Thanks for joining us Elise and have a wonderful Tuesday! xo
