Chicken Chili Verde
I was thinking of making a chicken chili and pondered aloud on Facebook whether I should go the "white" chili route with salsa verde and cannellini or go Southwestern style with tomatoes, corn, and black beans.
The verdict? White, unanimously.
I had never made a chicken chili before. My beef chili is very much appreciated in these here parts, so I wasn't sure if the family would touch a chicken chili.
But the aromas of chiles, onion, and garlic won them over. My husband walked into the kitchen and said, "That smells good. What are you making?" And my daughter Christina came by and said "Oh, what's that? I'm hungry."
The chili was a big hit, even for this beef-loving family.
Cook's Notes:
1) If you follow this blog, you know I love Trader Joe's for their economical and natural products. I used their salsa verde in this recipe. Herdez is another good brand.
2) There are several ways you can roast a poblano pepper. We used a kitchen blow torch, which we have to make creme brulee, but you can blacken the skin of the poblano pepper either under the broiler, turning when appropriate to get all sides, or above the open flame on a gas stovetop. When the pepper is fully blackened, place in a paper lunch bag, a plastic freezer bag, or in plastic wrap. Enclosed, the heat from the pepper will cause steam and helps the skin separate from the pepper. When cool, rub off the blackened skin and proceed with the recipe.
3) This chili can be as mild or as spicy as you like. To obtain a medium level of heat, take out the seeds and the inner ribs of the poblano pepper and the jalapeno. For a milder chili, use green pepper instead and leave out the poblano and jalapeno. For a hotter chili, include the seeds and add more chili if you like.
4) Instead of ground chicken meat, you can use ground turkey or cubed chicken or turkey breast or thigh. You can also use leftover cooked chicken or turkey. Or you can use cubed pork, although you would cook the chili longer, until the pork is tender. If you're vegetarian, you can use soy crumbles or TVP.
