Abby's White Chili Low Fat


I originally got this recipe from the looneyspoon series but have adapted it to suit my taste. here is my version of a thick, very satisfying chilli. i sometimes cook up some chicken breast and add it to the mix. the spices are a guideline...they can be increased or decreased according to taste. i tend to very liberal with the spices.

Steps


Heat stock pot slightly then add pam.
Add olive oil and add onions , celery and garlic.
Cook and stir for 4 - 5 minutes , until veggies are softened.
Add chili powder , cumin , oregano and coriander to veggies.
Mix well and cook for 1 minute.
Add flour and stir until veggies is well coated.
Stir in broth and evaporated milk.
Bring mixture to a boil.
Redeuce heat to medium and simmer , uncovered for 5 minutes.
Add beans , green chilies , salt pepper and cayenne pepper to veggies.
Reduce heat to medium low.
Cover and simmer for 15 minutes , stirring occasionally.
Remove chili from heat.
Stir in sour cream and cilantro.
Serving suggestions: i sometimes will cook a chicken breast for 30 minutes in my toaster oven , cut it into cubes and add half for a single serving of chili.
I sometimes add 1 / 2 cup lentils.
Adding more broth if it gets too thick.
I like to serve the chili with a gourmet blend of wild rice with mixed brown rice -- which makes a wonderful nutty addition.
