Fast and Easy Chicken Chili

Submitted by Jami_lu

"This chili is great for cold days or when you need a fast meal that's super easy to make. It's also very adaptable, depending on what ingredients you have in your pantry. I've used any variety of beans I happen to have on hand, and I've also used ground beef or ground turkey in place of the chicken."

directions

1. In large pot, cook chicken with garlic and onion. (To make this recipe very fast, I have cooked, cut-up chicken stored in zip-lock bags in the freezer that I can pull out, defrost for a minute, and throw in the pot. Makes things so easy!)
2. Add the remaining ingredients and stir well.
3. Bring to a boil, then lower heat and simmer for about 10 minutes.
4. Serve with sour cream and shredded cheese.
