Chicken Enchilada Chili Recipe

Ingredients

How to make it

  • Before you start anything, rinse your beans and look for any small rocks or debris. A chipped tooth is a fast way to ruin any good meal!
  • Allow beans to soak overnight or at least six hours in cold water. If you don't have time for this, place beans in a pot of water and bring to a boil. Remove the pot of beans from the heat and allow to soak 1-2 hours more.
  • Discard the water your beans were soaked in. It will usually be full of starch and any debris you didn't rinse off, and this recipe does not call for dirt.
  • While your beans are soaking, chop your veggies and allow onion, carrot, celery, and peppers to sweat and soften for a minute or two without browning. I usually add a few tablespoons of veggie broth rather than oil to prevent them from sticking.
  • Add tomatoes, chilies, enchilada sauce, beer, and seasoning to veggies and mix well.
  • Carefully add beans and gently mix. Stirring too often or too harshly will smoosh your beans and you'll have a tex-mex spread rather than chili beans :). Add you chicken too if you are using it.
  • Add broth until chili reaches your preferred consistency and gently bring to a boil. Allow to simmer uncovered over low heat for an hour or two, adding more stock as necessary. Feel free to taste frequently to adjust seasonings!
  • Serve over warm tortilla strips with whatever toppings you like :)
