- 1 pound 99% ground Chicken We use chicken breast and grind the meat.
- 1 Tablespoon Olive Oil
- 1 Large Onion
- 4 Tablespoons Chili Powder
- 2 teaspoons Cumin
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black Pepper
- 1 teaspoon Oregano
- 1 teaspoon Onion Powder
- 2 teaspoons Chicken Bouillon
- 2 teaspoons Cayenne Pepper Optional
- 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
- 2 teaspoons Paprika
- 32 Ounces Fat-Free Chicken Broth
- 32 Ounces Spicy Chili Beans
- 30 Ounces Diced Tomatoes 2 - 14 ½ ounce cans
- 16 Ounces Kidney Beans Drain the Kidney Beans
- 12 Ounces Dark Beer
- 1 Habanero Optional
Chop Onion. Chop Habanero (if using) In a large pot, add olive oil and onion. Sauté Onion, when soft add the spices (Chili powder, cayenne pepper, Cumin, Salt, Black Pepper, Onion Powder, Garlic Powder Chicken bouillon, Paprika, and Oregano). Sauté for 2 minutes. This really enhances the spices.
Add the ground chicken (or turkey) and 1 cup of water to the onions and spices. The water will deglaze the pan. Add the Habanero. Cook over medium heat until the Turkey/Chicken is done. About 5 minutes.
Add Kidney Beans, Spicy Chili beans, Diced Tomatoes, Chicken Broth, and Beer. Stir and bring to a boil. It will seem like a lot of liquid, but the liquid will cook down and make a thick flavorful sauce.
Simmer for one to two hours. Taste the chili, if it's not spicy enough add additional Cayenne Pepper. We did!!!!
Enjoy. We like to serve it with sour cream, shredded cheese, a little fresh Jalapeño, and/or green onions.
