Ingredients




1 pound extra lean ground chicken, browned with a dash of cayenne pepper and 1 can, drained, Unico marinated bean salad
6 cloves minced garlic
2 red peppers, chopped
1 jalapeño pepper finely sliced&diced
2 tablespoons chili powder
1/2 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon roasted red pepper flakes
1 teaspoon cellery salt
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 1/2 cups garlic-onion tomato sauce
1 chicken bouillon cube

Preparation

1 Brown chicken in pan, sprinkled lightly with onion powder and cayenne pepper while cooking. 2 In pot combine all ingredients, and simmer for about 45 minutes to an hour on low heat, stirring every 10-15 minutes. The chili may seem chunky and not “saucy” enough at first, but after it’s finished cooking it will be the perfect consistency!  Enjoy! 3 NOTE: this recipe may be a bit too spicy for some, so you can decrease the amount of cayenne pepper, use half of a jalapeño pepper or omit it all together, and decrease the amount of red pepper flakes to 1/2 tsp.

About


I don’t really like eating ground beef, so I wanted to try something out with some extra lean ground chicken instead. (Much healthier!) I couldn’t find any recipes that worked for me, so I took what I had sitting around in the fridge and cupboards, and tossed together something that I am very happy with!
