  • Total Time: 25 minutes
  • Yield: Serves approximately 6 people 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 yellow onion, chopped
  • 1 jalapeno, diced
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 4 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 1.5 cups sour cream
  • 1/2 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
  • 1/2 tablespoon dried oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
  • 2 cups frozen sweet white corn
  • 1/2 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 1 lime, juice
  • 3 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 3 tablespoons water
  • Olive oil

Instructions

  1. Heat a tablespoon of olive oil in your pot over medium-high heat. Toss in the chopped onion and diced jalapeño and let them cook for about 5 minutes until the onion softens and becomes translucent.
  2. Add in the minced garlic, chili powder, and oregano. Stir for another minute.
  3. Pour in the chicken broth and add your chicken breasts. Season with salt and pepper, then bring everything to a boil. Once it’s bubbling, reduce the heat, cover, and let it simmer for about 10-15 minutes until the chicken is cooked through.
  4. Transfer the cooked chicken breasts to a plate and shred them using two forks. Add the chicken back into the pot.
  5. Stir in the sour cream, shredded cheese, cilantro, corn, and lime juice.
  6. Stir together your cornstarch and water; then slowly pour it into the pot. Give everything a good stir and let it simmer uncovered for another 10 minutes.
  7. Ladle your chili into bowls and pile on your favorite toppings.
