Sailboat Galley – White Chicken Chili

Substitutions:

• Use 2 7-ounce cans of mild or medium chilies instead of fresh
• Chicken stock may be made from bouillon
• Use any other type of white beans for the cannellini beans; can use other colors of beans but then it will not be a white chili
• Use 24 ounces of canned pre-cooked chicken instead of the chicken breasts; can use other cuts of chicken
• Use other cheese that will melt in place of the Monterey Jack. 4 cups is about two pounds of cheese.
• Can also garnish with strips or rings of peppers and a few slices of green onion tops.

Milder Variation: Use sweet peppers and/or decrease amount and decrease or omit the cayenne pepper.

Dairy-Free Variation: Cheese and sour cream can be omitted for those who can’t eat it. To make, separate one or more servings before adding the cheese to the chili, and simmer in a second pan.
