In another thread, Stogie (aka Kevin Taylor) posted a recipe for chili verde. I was intrigued, but only had a half-chicken leftover.
The resultant experiment was a hit, and I figured I'd post it here to see how others might improve it.
Green Chicken Chili (with thanks to Stogie!)
1 medium Onion, minced
3 cloves Garlic, chopped
2 tablespoons Olive oil
1 pound chicken, smoked and chopped (I used half a whole chicken, leg, thigh and breast)
2 pounds Green chilies, roasted, peeled, seeded and chopped (I used 1 lb Anaheim, 1 lb Chilaca)
2 tablespoons seeded, chopped Jalapeno pepper
1 teaspoon Cumin
1 teaspoon Salt
1 teaspoon Black pepper
3 cups Chicken stock
1 bottle Beer, dark
PREPARATION:
In a large dutch oven-type pot, saute garlic and onion in olive oil. Add chicken and mix until heated. Add remaining ingredients and bring to boil.
Simmer, partially covered, for about 2 hours. If you want more heat, add more Jalaps.
Serve over long grain rice (or maybe some sort of beans), garnish with diced onion, shredded cheese and additional jalapeno to taste.
Stogie, my wife says thanks! She devoured her two helpings...
