Total time: 65 min
Yield: Serves 6-8
Ingredients: 2 tablespoons olive oil; 1 large onion, diced; 2 poblano peppers, seeded and diced; 4 cloves garlic, minced; 1 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch pieces; 2 teaspoons ground cumin; 1 teaspoon dried oregano; 1/2 teaspoon ground coriander; 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (adjust to taste); 3 cans (15 oz each) white beans (Great Northern or cannellini), drained and rinsed; 4 cups low-sodium chicken broth; 1 can (4 oz) diced green chilies; 1 cup corn kernels (fresh or frozen); 1/2 cup heavy cream; Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Instructions

Sauté the aromatics

Heat olive oil in a large Dutch oven or heavy pot over medium heat. Add the diced onion and poblano peppers and cook until softened, about 5-6 minutes. Add minced garlic and cook for an additional 30 seconds until fragrant.
Cook the chicken

Add the chicken pieces to the pot and season with salt and pepper. Cook until the chicken is no longer pink on the outside, about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Add spices and beans

Stir in the cumin, oregano, coriander, and cayenne pepper. Cook for 1 minute to toast the spices. Add the drained white beans, diced green chilies, and chicken broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to maintain a simmer.
Simmer the chili

Let the chili simmer uncovered for 20-25 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and the chicken to cook through completely. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
Thicken and finish

Using the back of a spoon, mash some of the beans against the side of the pot to thicken the chili. Add the corn kernels and simmer for an additional 5 minutes.
Add cream and season

Stir in the heavy cream and simmer for 5 more minutes. Taste and adjust seasonings with salt and pepper as needed. If the chili is too thick, add a bit more chicken broth; if too thin, continue to simmer uncovered until desired consistency is reached.
