Chicken Choila Recipes

CHICKEN CHOILA

Steps:

• Mix together the chicken, 2 tablespoons of the soybean oil, 1/2 tablespoon of the garlic, 1/3 tablespoon cumin, 1/2 tablespoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a bowl. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.
• Heat a grill on high heat. Cook the chicken for 8 minutes on one side and 7 minutes on the other, or until cooked through. Place in a bowl and let cool, then cut into 1-inch cubes.
• In a bowl, mix together the chicken, leeks, ginger, paprika and chili powder, the remaining 2 tablespoons garlic and 1 tablespoon cumin, and 1/2 tablespoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.
• Heat the remaining 6 tablespoons soybean oil in a small pot; add the fenugreek seeds. Once the fenugreek starts to turn black, remove the pot from the heat, add the turmeric and immediately pour the hot oil over the bowl of chicken. Mix in the mustard oil.

EASY WHITE CHICKEN CHILI

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in a Dutch oven over medium heat. Cook chicken, onion, and garlic in hot oil until the chicken is browned completely, 3 to 5 minutes per side.
• Remove the chicken to a cutting board, cut into 1-inch pieces, and return to the Dutch oven; add chicken broth, cannellini, green chilies, oregano, cumin, and cayenne pepper. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook until the chicken is cooked through, 30 to 45 minutes.
• Divide cilantro among 4 bowls. Ladle chili over cilantro and top with cheese. Season with salt to serve.

CHICKEN CHILI

Steps:

• Cook the onions in the oil over medium-low heat for 10 to 15 minutes, until translucent. Add the garlic and cook for 1 more minute. Add the bell peppers, chili powder, cumin, red pepper flakes, cayenne, and salt. Cook for 1 minute. Crush the tomatoes by hand or in batches in a food processor fitted with a steel blade (pulse 6 to 8 times). Add to the pot with the basil. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer, uncovered, for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Rub the chicken breasts with olive oil and place them on a baking sheet. Sprinkle generously with salt and pepper. Roast the chicken for 35 to 40 minutes, until just cooked. Let cool slightly. Separate the meat from the bones and skin and cut it into 3/4-inch chunks. Add to the chili and simmer, uncovered, for another 20 minutes. Serve with the toppings, or refrigerate and reheat gently before serving.
