Hawaiian Chicken Chili
Another great recipe from my aunt toni. Unusual but wonderfully tasty as was proved this fall when my dh and i won a chili cook-off with it. Hope you enjoy it as well.
Steps
In large pot or dutch oven , melt butter and saut chicken until almost cooked through.
Add garlic , onion and bell pepper and cook for 2 more minutes.
Add reserved pineapple juice and all other ingredients- except- for the pineapple chunks.
Bring to a boil , then reduce heat and simmer for 45 minutes , stirring occasionally.
Remove from heat , stir in pineapple and serve immediately- or , what i like to do- remove from heat allow to cool , cover and refrigerate over night.
Next day , reheat on stove top , stir in pineapple and serve.
I found this a bit excessive and so tweaked the measurement.
I find 7-8 breasts works for me.
I guess it depends on how well endowed your chickens were.
Judge accordingly.
