White Lightning Chicken Chili gets its name because it only takes 30 minutes from start to finish to get this one-dish meal to the table. Don't drain the chopped green chiles or navy beans. Serve chili with cornbread.

Ingredients

1 large sweet onion, diced
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 tablespoons olive oil
4 cups shredded cooked chicken
2 (14 1/2-oz.) cans chicken broth
2 (4.5-oz.) cans chopped green chiles
1 (1.25-oz.) package white chicken chili seasoning mix
3 (16-oz.) cans navy beans
Toppings:
Avocado-Mango Salsa
Sour cream, shredded Monterey Jack cheese, fresh cilantro leaves

How to Make It

Sauté onion and garlic in hot oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat 5 minutes or until onion is tender. Stir in chicken, next 3 ingredients, and 2 cans navy beans. Coarsely mash remaining can navy beans, and stir into chicken mixture. Bring to a boil, stirring often; cover, reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer, stirring occasionally, 10 minutes. Serve with desired toppings.

Don't be an ass, sometimes you need something very quick. Didn't your mom teach you manners and respect??

No need to be an ass! Sometimes, people need something quick. It's a suggestion only! Didn't your mom teach you manners and respect??

Why do you put everything "in quotations"? Didn't your mother teach you anything about grammar?

Wow - that's a LOT of hostility over a simple recipe! Honestly, Brian, most of us who don't like the looks of a recipe just move on. No need for an internet rage rant.

Congrats for being a hero, Brian. For someone who knows so much about cooking you are extremely offended by a recipe that is beneath your ability Maybe you should be commenting on Bon Appetit or Fine Cooking recipes instead.

Excellent and easy. Especially liked salsa that accompanied the chili---sweet and salty.

Too much salt! The recommended seasoning mix is mostly salt and there is salt in the broth. Would be better with a list of herbs and spices instead of the mix.
