Chicken and Black Bean Chili


Silver Post Medal for All Time! 288 Posts
I submitted this because so many people like black beans and Mexican flavors. I have not made it and most likely will not because of the chiles and some of the other ingredients (allergic). But I hope some of you will enjoy it.

Directions:

Heat 1/4 cup of the oil in a heavy-bottomed, 8-quart pot over medium heat.

Add the chicken, chili powder, and cumin seeds and saute until the chicken is cooked through, 4-6 minutes.

Transfer the meat to a bowl and set aside.

Return the pot to the heat, add the remaining 1/4 cup of oil, and cook the yellow onions, poblanos, bell pepper, chipotles, and garlic, stirring frequently, until the onions start to brown.

Stir in the beans with their liquid, tomatoes, and corn and return the cooked chicken with all its juices. Turn the heat down to low and simmer, stirring every 5 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through and tender, about 25 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

In a large bowl, combine the avocado, tomatoes, onion, cilantro, lime, jalapenos, and salt. Set aside.

To serve, ladle the chili into bowls and top with the salsa and the cheeses.

Oh my gosh, I'm reading this recipe, and it just keeps getting better and better! This is a must try recipe, sounds very flavorful and colorful. This sounds like one I will want to can, and the salsa sounds like something I will serve with other meals. thank you!

This recipe is really outstanding! I tried it, and is delicious. The flavors are vibrant and wonderful. Spooning the salsa on top is just wonderful, but it is good without the salsa too. The salsa recipe is excellent - I'll make it for other meals too.

I put in only one chipotle pepper with adobo and it was just right for my taste. I can highly recommend this to all the folks out there. Thank you for posting it!
