  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 pound skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, cut into ½-inch cubes
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, chopped
  • 2 (15.5 ounce) cans great Northern beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1 (14.5 ounce) can chicken broth
  • 2 (4 ounce) cans chopped green chiles
  • 1 tsp salt

  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • ½ tsp ground black pepper
  • ¼ tsp cayenne pepper
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • ½ cup heavy whipping cream

DIRECTIONS

  1. Gather ingredients.
  2. Heat olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add chicken, onion, and garlic; cook and stir until chicken is no longer pink in the center and juices run clear, 10 to 15 minutes.
  3. Stir in beans, chicken broth, green chiles, salt, cumin, oregano, black pepper, and cayenne pepper; bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until flavors have blended, about 30 minutes.
  4. Remove chili from heat; stir in sour cream and whipping cream until incorporated.
  5. Serve hot and enjoy!

To take this creamy white chicken chili over the top, serve each bowl with a dollop of sour cream and fresh jalapeno slices for a little heat. Tortilla chips add welcome crunch, if you have them on hand.
