Sometimes you throw a hail mary om the kitchen and get lucky. When a pregnant woman tells you she wants white chili now, you find a way to make chili in a hurry.
- What you need -
46 oz Northern Beans
1 lb ground chicken
1 tsp chili powder
1 tsp onion powder
1 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp cumin
- What to do -
1) Take the lid off the jar and microwave the northern beans for 6-8 minutes. (Obviously, if you are worried about using the jar in the microwave, put beans in microwave safe container. I was in a hurry, OK?)
2) While the beans are in the microwave, brown the ground chicken in a sauce pan or frying pan, break apart as much as possible. Add a dash of vegetable oil if the meat is lean.
3) Dump it all in a crock pot and stir until thoroughly mixed so it looks like it took all day.
- What's next? -
Well, I'm going to keep northern beans in the cupboard. This was too quick and good to not have it ready to go as needed. I will try it with half burger and half chicken and no oil when browning the meat. I'll also try swapping the onion or garlic powder with onion or garlic salt. Finally, if I'm up for cleaning the blender, I'm going to try liquifying 1/4 or 1/3 of the beans too.
