Creamy White Chicken Chili

 

I can't take credit for this recipe... but it is AMAZING. So full of flavor, creamy, and filling. It is a winter staple in our house now!

1 onion, diced

1 tbsp garlic, minced

2 tbsp lime juice

1 tbsp olive oil

2 lbs chicken, cooked and shredded

4 cups chicken broth (GF if needed)

4 cans great northern white beans, drained and rinsed

3 (4-oz) cans diced green chiles

2 tsp salt

1 tsp black pepper

2 tsp cumin

2 tsp oregano

1/4 tsp cayenne pepper

1 tsp chili powder

1/2 cup fresh cilantro, chopped

8 oz cream cheese, cubed

1 cup heavy cream

In a large stockpot saute the onions and garlic in the olive oil and lime juice over medium high heat. Cook until onions are translucent. Add the cooked chicken, chicken broth, beans, chiles, and seasonings. Bring to a boil, stirring often, then reduce to simmer; simmer uncovered 30-45 min. Turn off heat and add cream cheese. Stir until melted and incorporated completely. Stir in the heavy cream.
