j/k I made it up yesterday”… Nicki

Here is a recipe from one of my best friends, Nicki.  Sounds perfect for a cold winter night!

Nicki’s White Chicken Chili

2 lbs chicken cut into bite-sized cubes 
1-2 tsp olive oil
1 green bell pepper, chopped
1 white onion, chopped
1 jalapeno finely chopped- remove most seeds (remove all seeds if you don’t like it super spicy)
1 small can diced roasted green chilies
1 can white beans drained
1 14oz can stewed tomatoes
1/4 cup masa flour
2 cups water
1 tsp cayenne pepper
Chili seasoning

Toppings: mozzarella cheese, cilantro, sour cream, tortilla strips, raw onion

Brown chicken with olive oil, onion, bell pepper, and jalapeno.  Add water, masa flour, can of green chilis, can of tomatoes, and chili seasoning- bring to a boil and then lower heat to a simmer and cover with lid for 15 minutes.  Uncover and add white beans, and cayenne pepper to taste.  Cook for about another 15 mins uncovered (until thickens to your desired consistency).  Serve over brown rice with corn bread on the side.

Nicely done, Nicks!  It sounds so delicious!
