I made this chili for our school carnival's chili cook-off. I got the recipe from our ward cookbook and made it for the first time and was so rushed getting to the carnival that I didn't even taste it. I am still laughing my head off because it won first prize and I still haven't tried a single bite! But according to all the raving compliments, this chili is AMAZING!
Update 2022: I have made this recipe for many more cook-off's over the years. True to it's name, I have won first place every time. I mean, it's almost embarrassing at this point. (Can't stop, won't stop!)
1 lb. chicken breast, cubed
1 medium onion, chopped
1 1/2 tsp. garlic powder
1 Tbsp. vegetable oil
2 (15 oz) cans Great Northern beans, rinsed and drained
2 (4 oz) cans chopped green chiles
1 (14 oz) can chicken broth (2 cups)
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. ground cumin
1 tsp. dried oregano
1/2 tsp. pepper
1/4 tsp. cayenne pepper
1 c. sour cream
1/2 c. whipping cream
Saute chicken, onion, and garlic powder in oil until chicken is done. Add beans, broth, chilies, and seasonings. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer uncovered for 30 minutes. Remove from heat. Stir in sour cream and whipping cream. Serve. Makes about 2 quarts.
