Soups

Chicken White Chile (takes 30 mins)

1 medium onion, chopped

1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and chopped

2 garlic cloves, minced

1 tables vegetable oil

2 cans (15 1/2 oz each) great northern beans, rinsed and drained

4 cups chicken broth

2 tables minced fresh parsley (I use the dried)

1 tables lime juice

1 to 1 1/4 teas ground cumin

2 tables cornstarch

1/4 cup cold water

2 cups cubed cooked chicken *

*(it is always so easy to buy the rotissery (how do you spell that word?)  chicken from Sams, Costco or your local grocery store and just debone it)

In a large sauce pan, cook onion, jalapeno and garlic in oil until tender. Stir in beans, broth, parsley, lime juice and cumin. Bring to a boil.

Reduce heat and cover and simmeer for 10 min, stirring occasionally. Combine cornstarch and water until smooth. Stir into chile. Add cooked chicken. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 mins or until thickened.

*When cutting and seeding hot peppers, use rubber or plastic gloves to protect your hands, or do like I do and let your husband do it. Leaving the seeds in, gives a much spicier flavor if desired. Am going to post a great bread to go along with this chile. A great combo
