Eat Your Way To Happy

Real food tastes good, is good for you, and fills you with the fuel you need to smile.

​CHICKEN CHILI
  1. 1 or 2 boxes low sodium chicken broth (I use “Imagine” brand from Whole Foods – organic, free range and there is no added sugar which many of them have) 
  2. 2 lbs boneless chicken breasts
  3. 1 Bay Leaf
  4. 1 - 2 garlic cloves – sliced
  5. Sprinkle of oregano
  6. Olive oil
  7. 1 large onion- chopped
  8. 1 green pepper  -chopped
  9. 2-3 jalapeno peppers (seeds removed) – chopped***
  10. 3-5 cloves of garlic – minced (depends on your taste)
  11. 2 TBSP chili powder
  12. 2 tsp ground cumin
  13. ½ tsp oregano
  14. 1 cup water
  15. ½ tsp crushed red pepper
  16. 1 TBSP Worcestershire sauce
  17. 1 TBSP Dijon mustard
  18. 1 (14 ½ oz) no salt, fire roasted diced tomatoes
  19. 1 bottle chili sauce (I use Organic Ville from Whole Foods – uses agave instead of sugar) 
This looks like a lot but it is super easy:
  • Put the chicken breasts in a large pot and cover them with the chicken broth.  Add the bay leaf, garlic and oregano.  Bring to a boil; reduce heat, cover so that it is simmering and have a sip of seltzer, wine or something.  Prepare to start chopping ingredients 7- 10 
  • After 5 minutes or so, flip the chicken in the simmering broth so that the other side cooks.  Keep chopping
  • After approx. 10 min total, cut open the chicken to make sure it is cooked through.  If not, keep cooking until done
  • Once chicken is cooked through, remove it from the broth and put on a plate.  Empty the broth into a large bowl or measuring cup – you want to have about 13 ¾ oz of the broth (remove the bay leaf)
  • Cut up the chicken into bite size pieces
  • Clean out the pot you just cooked chicken in and add olive oil (enough to cover) and add ingredients 7-10.  Saute 5 minutes.  Add spices (chili powder, cumin, oregano); cook 2 minutes
  • Add the cut up chicken, the broth and the rest of the ingredients (14-19); bring to a boil.  Cover, reduce heat, and simmer 20 minutes
*** Make sure after you remove the seeds from the jalapenos to rinse your hands extra carefully and whatever you do, do not touch your eyes.  I thought I was going blind for a full 15 minutes one day.  It was life-changing and so I need to caution you.
