"Wish I had time for just one more bowl of chili."
-The dying words of Kit Carson

The refrigerator light goes on...

Compare this to the traditional Chili con Carne. There’s really not much difference and traditional chili, like many Mexican / Southwestern recipes, can actually be pretty good for you.

Chili Powder

Chili powder is not simply dried chilies but usually has other spices blended in. These can include oregano, garlic, coriander, cumin, onion powder allspice and cloves.

1 lbs	white northern beans

1 Tbsp	canola oil
1 1/2 cup	white onion (chopped)
2 cloves	garlic (minced)
3 large	russet potatoes (peeled and cubed)
2 cups	low sodium chicken or vegetable stock
1 1/2 cups	white wine
1 lb	boneless skinless chicken breast (cubed)
2 tsp	chili powder
1 tsp	Tabasco sauce

Place beans in a bowl and cover with cold water. Soak overnight. Place the oil in a large stock pot over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and cook slowly. Stir frequently and don’t let the onions brown. Add the beans, potatoes, 1 cup of the chicken stock and 1 cup of the white wine. Cook over medium-low heat, and then let it simmer for 30 minutes. Add the cubed chicken, chili powder, Tabasco and cumin. Stir well and add the rest of the chicken stock and white wine. Cook over low heat until the beans are soft (about one hour).
