Chicken and Black Bean Chili(GF)
From: Kimberlee Stokes @ thepeacefulmom.com/
This recipe has a rich tomato flavor. If you would like less tomato flavor you can easily just use two 28 ounce cans of tomato and add a little more of the chicken, beans and corn. You can also substitute a jar of salsa and one can of diced green chilis for one of the cans of tomatoes and the green sauce.
Serves: A bunch (8-10 depending on serving size)
Ingredients:
3 baked chicken breasts, shredded
16 oz. bag of frozen corn
4 cups cooked black beans
(3) 28 ounce cans unflavored diced tomatoes*
5 cubes green sauce (See recipe below)
3 Tablespoons chili powder
2 Tablespoons ground cumin
1/2 Tablespoon garlic salt
1/2 Tablespoon regular salt
* Corn Chips
Directions:
Place all ingredients in your crockpot, stir to combine and cook on low for 5-6 hours.
Serve with corn chips and shredded cheese.
*Really the corn chips make this dish, so don’t leave them out! :)
Easy Make Ahead Green Sauce
My friend Brenda shared this easy recipe for a great green sauce with me. I make a large batch and then freeze it in ice cube trays. I pop the cubes into a freezer zipper bag and have instant flavor for soups, chilis and other recipes than need a little kick!
Ingredients:
2 medium green bell peppers, chopped
1 large onion, chopped
1 small bunch cilantro, coarsely chopped
2 cloves garlic
1 jalapeno (or more if you like heat)
Directions:
Blend until pureed (best in a food processor, add a little water if using a blender).
Freeze in ice cube trays, then pop the cubes into a zipper freezer bag for storage.
Use in bean dishes, soups and chili. Yum!
*Loupy's Note
You can replace salsa with canned diced tomatoes in this sauce. I would because of my allergy to onions. And I would use onion powder to taste.
