Bowl of Green Chicken Chili

Ingredients:

  • 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 green bell peppers, chopped
  • 1 can (4 oz) diced green chilies
  • 1 cup chicken broth

  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh cilantro, for garnish
  • Optional: sliced jalapeños and sour cream for serving

Instructions:

  1. In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and cook until it becomes translucent, about 5 minutes.
  2. Stir in the garlic and green bell peppers, and cook for an additional 3 minutes until the peppers begin to soften.
