White chili

 

4 15oz. cans white beans(Navy or great white beans)
1 lg. onion, chopped
1 lb. cooked, diced chicken (I used three lg. chkn. breasts)
1 7oz. can diced green chile's
1 t gr. cumin
3 t dried oregano
4 garlic cloves, minced
1 1/2-2 c sr. cream
1 c grated mont. jack cheese
1 T chopped cilantro
1 chopped tomato (garnish)

*Sautee onions in a little oil, add chicken, stir. After 5 or so min. add garlic, gr. chile's, cumin, oregano, and chicken and onions to the beans in a pot. Simmer for 15 min. If it's too thick for you at this point you can add up to a cup of water. Once simmered for 15 min. take off heat and add cheese, sour cream, and cilantro. Stir until melted. Garnish with tomatoes. This is a yummy, creamy alternative to regular chili. By the way, for those of you worried, you can find those white beans by the other beans in the canned bean section. They're not hard to find.
