Step‑by‑Step Instructions
- Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add 1 diced onion and 1 chopped bell pepper, sautéing for 5-7 minutes until softened and translucent. Stir in 3 minced garlic cloves and cook for another minute until fragrant.
- Introduce 1 pound of bite-sized, boneless, skinless chicken breasts into the pot. Sprinkle in 2 tablespoons of Cajun seasoning, 1 teaspoon of cumin, and a pinch of cayenne pepper if desired. Cook for about 5-7 minutes until the chicken is no longer pink.
- Pour in 4 cups of chicken broth, then add 1 can of drained Great Northern beans and 1 can of diced green chiles. Stir well and bring to a simmer.
- Once simmering, reduce the heat to low. Cover the pot and cook for at least 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- After 30 minutes, stir in 1 cup of frozen corn. Allow to heat through for about 5 minutes.
- For an extra creamy finish, mix in ½ cup of heavy cream or sour cream gradually.
- Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper. Stir well before serving.
- Ladle the Cajun White Chicken Chili into bowls and garnish with fresh cilantro, shredded cheddar cheese, a dollop of sour cream, and a lime wedge.
