Dinner Tonight - Tag

This is in response to a tag from Kareena a long time ago... This is one of my favorite recipes. It's light, healthy & delicious, Mike & I love it and the girls eat it (except Madi but that's a topic for another post...). My sister-in-law Erika made it for us once and now it's one of our favorites. It's best on a chilly night, but Skye & Mike have been asking for it, so made it this morning for dinner tonight (having dinner ready early is the best feeling ever!). I'm so glad I did, because now I have a fussy, teething baby who won't nap and it's looking like that may be the only thing I get done all day...

Anyway, here's the recipe:

White Chicken Chili

1/4 c. butter

1 clove garlic, finely chopped

1 large onion, chopped

3 c. chicken broth

1 Tbs. dried basil leaves

1/4 tsp. ground cloves

2 Tbs. fresh cilantro

2 tsp. ground red chili powder

4 c. chicken, cubed, uncooked

2 cans great northern beans, undrained

Melt butter over medium heat, add onion & garlic and cook until clear. Add remaining ingredients, heat to boil, then reduce heat & simmer 1 hour, stirring occasionally.

We like it with tortilla chips & shredded monterey jack cheese.

I love new recipes & all my best recipes are tried & true ones I've received from friends & family, so I tag everyone who reads this to post a favorite recipe...
