Preparation

Step 1

1.Remove visible fat from chicken, cut into bite-sized pieces.
2.Spray large pot with cooking spray. Add chicken, onion, garlic, chili powder (optional) or jalapeno (optional) cooking over medium-heat until chicken is no longer pink (about 7 minutes)
3.Lightly mash the drained, rinsed beans with a fork.
4.Add all remaining ingredients to chicken mixture and simmer on high for 10 minutes.
5.Spoon chili into bowls and top with chopped fresh cilantro and/or dollop of sour cream (optional)

Budget Tip: when buying chicken, tenderloins are often less expensive than breasts – in recipes like this one where you cut the chicken into bit-size pieces the cut makes no difference so pick whatever’s cheaper! Be sure to check for specials or sales.
