* Creamy White Chili *

This chili is actually my husband's specialty...and by that, I mean it's one of the few things he really makes...besides desserts and grilling...and he is awesome at desserts and grilling! (It's not that he can't cook--because he can---he just doesn't that often) He made this for us when we were dating and it was a bit spicy for me but I've grown to really like the kick in it!

Creamy White Chili
1 lb. chicken breasts, cut into 1/2 cubes
1 T. vegetable oil
1 medium onion
1 1/2 tsp. garlic powder

Brown chicken and onion in oil. After browned, add garlic power.

2 cans (15.5 oz) great northern beans
1 can (14.5 oz) chicken broth
1 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. pepper
1/4 tsp. cayenne pepper
2 cans (4 oz) chopped green chilis
1 tsp. cumin
1 tsp. dried oregano
browned chicken/onion mix

Mix all ingredients in large pot. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to simmering and cover and simmer for 30 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in:

1 c. sour cream
1/2 c. whipping cream

We serve it over rice but you could have it by itself too!
