Directions
Lean Green Chicken Chili, A thick and rich stew that got all thumbs up from my diners! This is a Pampered Chef recipe that I’ve submitted as it appeared in my cookbook For visual appeal, next time I’ll use cannelini beans rather than pintos I didn’t even attempt to grate the tortillas, I just chopped them up finely; you need them small enough to dissolve & thicken the stew The poblano peppers add lots of flavor but not much heat The opportunity to adjust the heat level to your taste will be in your choice of salsa verde used a medium-heat salsa and it was just right for us I also opted not to use the remaining tortillas for chips – I just warmed them & served on the side Let your tastebuds guide you in your choices!, I made this with rotiserrie chicken Added half a can of corn and one sliced celery stock I also used water and added chicken bouillion instead of canned chicken broth No cilantro, didn’t have any Skipped toasting tortillas for the top Just chopped and threw them in the crockpot the last hour When I was eating it I was thinking this is good but after each bite there was something that was sticking out that I didn’t really care for Can’t figure out what that was because I like everything in the soup I added some shredded cheese, sour cream, and sirracha and didn’t taste it anymore My husband told me twice how much he liked it and said it was one of the top 5 soups I have ever made
