Timothy’s White Chili

1 pound large white beans
8 cups chicken broth
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 medium onions, chopped
1 tablespoon oil
2 4-ounce cans mild green chilies, chopped
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 ½ teaspoons oregano
¼ teaspoon ground cloves
¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
4 cups cooked chicken breast, diced
3 cups grated Monterey Jack cheese
Salsa
Sour Cream

Combine beans, broth, garlic and half the onions in a large pot and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until beans are soft (2 hours or more), adding more water or broth as necessary.

In a skillet, sauté remaining onions in oil until tender. Add chilies and seasonings and mix thoroughly. Add to bean mixture. Add chicken and simmer 1 hour.

Serve topped with cheese, salsa and sour cream.

Serves 8 to 10

We've had this recipe for years and love it. I made it for Christmas day. I grilled the chicken outside first, which made it even better. I also like a little fresh cilantro sprinkled on it.

While I love Timothy's original recipe, I do like to change it up sometimes. I take out the clove and add Cavendar's Greek seasoning. I also kick it up by adding some habanero powder.

I grilled the chicken and switched the cloves to cavendars. WOW- made it even better. Thanks.

Cavendars? Whazzat?

Not much of a website, but here it is. I buy the salt free version.

We love the stuff! We sprinkle it on fresh tomatoes, cottage cheese, steaks, popcorn, and deviled eggs. Yum!

When I put it on my popcorn at work, people seem to come from nowhere asking me what smells so good.

Great idea on the Calvendars in the chili, Doogy! I'll have to try that one (once my diet allows that much cheese again

BTW, they carry it at Paul's. That's how I was originally introduced to it: as a sample sprinkled on top of homegrown tomatoes. We do that frequently every summer now. Yumm!

Deb,

I've got a pot of Timothy's white chili cooking right. I never bother with the sour cream or cheese on my Timothy's chili. I like it quite well that way and I am sure it's a lot's healthier for me. When Timothy's was still viable, I always ordered it there without the sour cream or cheese. They were more than happy to accomodate me.

Gayle,

Thanks for the tip! I may just have to try it soon (when the weather gets back to chili weather...)

Huh? I thought it was ALWAYS chili weather.

Double the cumin and add a touch more salt!!!!

For those who have tried it- how really good is this chili? I've unfortunately never had it at the restaurant, but I've heard good things. I'm looking for a white chicken chili recipe to take to Super Bowl party and I want it to be REALLY good.
