Pioneer Woman Cooks Chipotle Chicken Chile Recipes

SLOW COOKER CHIPOTLE CHICKEN CHILI

Steps:

• Place chicken in a medium pot with enough water to cover. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 20 to 25 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
• While the chicken is cooking, place diced tomatoes, black beans, kidney beans, chile peppers, onions, chipotle peppers, garlic, and lime juice in a 6-quart slow cooker.
• Drain and cool chicken until easily handled. Shred chicken. Add to the slow cooker; stir to combine.
• Cook on Low for 8 to 10 hours.

CHIPOTLE CHICKEN CHILI

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the garlic and onions and cook for a few minutes until the onions soften. Add the chicken and cook until lightly browned. Add three-quarters of the beer, reserving the rest, then cook for a couple of minutes to reduce. Add the black beans, kidney beans, pinto beans, tomatoes, chile powder, cumin, salt and chipotles and stir to combine. Bring to a simmer, then cover the pot and cook for 1 hour.
• Combine the masa harina with the rest of the beer and stir to make a paste. Add this into the chili, along with the lime juice. Stir and cook until thick, 10 more minutes.
• Serve with the grated cheese, sour cream, diced tomatoes, cilantro and lime wedges for squeezing.

FAST WHITE CHICKEN CHILI

Steps:

• Mix the coriander, cumin, oregano, paprika, red pepper flakes, salt and pepper together in a small bowl.
• Add olive oil to a pressure cooker set to saute and add the chicken. Sprinkle the spice mix over the chicken and toss. Cook until the chicken has started to sear on the outside, then add the broth.
• Place the lid on the pressure cooker, set the valve to sealing, and cook on manual for 6 minutes. Release the steam using the quick-release cycle. Remove the chicken to a board and shred with two forks.
• Put the heavy cream and masa harina in a small bowl and mix until smooth with a whisk or fork.
• Switch the pressure cooker to saute and return the chicken to the pressure cooker along with the masa and heavy cream mixture, cannellini beans, green chiles and corn. Let cook, stirring occasionally, until the chili has thickened and the corn is warmed through, about 10 minutes.
• Ladle the chili into 6 bowls. Top with cheese and avocado. Serve with lime wedges.
