WHITE CHICKEN CHILI

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a medium pot over medium heat. Add the garlic, jalapeno, onion, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper and cook until softened, about 6 minutes. Add the ancho powder, coriander and cumin and cook, stirring, for 30 seconds. Add the chicken stock, increase the heat to medium-high and bring to a brisk simmer. Add the chicken breasts and simmer until the chicken is just cooked through, 15 to 20 minutes. Transfer the chicken to a plate to cool slightly.
• Meanwhile, add the beans and their liquid to the pot with the broth and simmer for 5 minutes. Transfer about half of the mixture to a blender and blend until smooth (be careful when blending hot liquids). Return the blended liquid to the pot and add the green chiles. Simmer for 5 to 10 minutes to blend the flavors.
• Meanwhile, shred the chicken. Add the chicken back to the chili and season with salt and pepper.
• Serve the chili with an assortment of toppings.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large Dutch oven or pot over medium heat. Add the onion, garlic, both jalapenos, the poblano, cumin, coriander, oregano and allspice. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are softened and the spices are toasted, about 7 minutes. Add the chicken, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Cook, stirring and breaking up the meat with a wooden spoon, until it starts browning, about 5 minutes.
• Add the beans, canned chiles, broth and 1 1/4 cups water; bring to a boil. Add the torn tortillas to the pot; reduce the heat to medium low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened, about 40 minutes.
• Remove the halved jalapeno from the chili and stir in all but a few tablespoons of the cilantro; season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Serve with assorted toppings, the reserved cilantro, lime wedges and more tortillas.

CHUNKY CHICKEN CHILI

Steps:

• In a large Dutch oven, melt 4 tablespoons butter over medium-high heat. Brown the chicken pieces until nicely colored and cooked through. Remove chicken to a large bowl and set aside.
• Using the same Dutch oven, stir in the flour. This will create a roux. Stir in the onions and peppers. Add the chicken stock to deglaze the pan and stir in the heavy cream. Lower heat and cook until the mixture thickens, about 5 minutes. Once the sauce has thickened, add the chili powder, coriander, cumin, cayenne, black pepper and the salt. Stir and cook for a few minutes. Add the cannellini beans, chiles and the chicken and simmer for another 6 to 8 minutes. At the very end, mix in the sour cream. Transfer to a serving bowl and garnish with Cheddar and parsley.

• Meanwhile, add 1/4 cup oil to a large Dutch oven and heat over medium heat. When hot, add the celery, onions and bell peppers and saute until tender, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the flour, stir to coat the vegetables and cook until the flour starts to brown, about 3 minutes. Whisk in the warm chicken stock, stirring until combined. Add the beans, chiles, garlic powder, cumin, rosemary and green tomatoes and bring to a simmer, cooking until the mixture starts to thicken, 15 to 20 minutes.
