Directions: |
Directions: Place chicken in heavy large saucepan. Add cold water to cover and bring to simmer, add 1 – 2 tsp salt. Cook until tender, about 15 minutes. Drain (keeping stock if you wish to use with the recipe). Cool and cut into cubes. (instead I browned raw cubed chicken with the onions and cooked with beans in next step.) Drain beans. Heat oil in same pot over med-high heat. Add onions and saute until translucent, about 10 minutes. Add garlic, chilies, cumin, oregano, cloves and cayenne. Saute for 2 minutes. Add beans and stock and bring to boil. Reduce heat and simmer until beans are very tender, stirring occasionally, about 2 hours. Add chicken and 1 cup cheese to chili and stir until cheese melts. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Ladle chili into bowls. Serve with remaining cheese sour cream and cilantro. |
