White Chicken Chili

From the kitchen of Sandra Jean Dutton Steele

This recipe comes from one of the best cooks I know, my sister-in-law, Sandy. She is famous for being able to taste anything and telling you what was in it and how it was made. This recipe is also great for camping. Freeze the chicken before you leave home and throw it in the dutch oven as is. Really special!

  • 1 tablespoon Safflower Oil
  • 1 medium Onion, diced
  • 1 clove Garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon Cumin
  • 1-1/2 pounds boneless, skinless Chicken Breast

  • 1-15 ounce can White Beans

  • 1-8 ounce jar diced Green Chilies
  • 2 packets Chicken Bouillon
  • 1-1/2 cups Water
  • ½ cup shredded Monterey Jack Cheese

In a small pan over medium heat, cook the onion, garlic and cumin in the hot oil until the onion is tender.
