We made this on Sunday from mostly leftovers. It was delicious and it cost
next to nothing......
Chicken Chili
Brown 4 boneless chicken breasts in skillet. Only brown them so they have more flavor in chili. They will cook in crock pot.
In crock pot add chicken (cut in 1 in cubes)
Add peppers ( we had a variety of red, yellow and orange mini sweet peppers)
add chopped onion
Leftover turkey broth( from when we made a turkey recently)
Cook for a few hours 4 or so
Add chopped jalapeno peppers ( usually we would use green chilis from can)
can of White beans (navy beans)
orzo pasta ( very small it adds thickness to chili)
cook another hour or so. You might have to drain some liquid. We start with alot of turkey broth
and end up draining some. Better to start with more than you need than to have adreid dish.
Serve in bowls. We both had a big bowl (plus all the nibling) plus it made 7 extra servings.
Remember I package all leftovers in identical containers, labeled, dated and how many servings.
The per person cost about $1.50 ea.
Now tell me I'm not frugal... By the way, had a container today for lunch. I think it was better the second time around.
