Creamy Poblano Chicken Chili

Ingredients

• 0.25 cup Avocado oil
• 1 Large onion (Diced)
• 2 Fire-roasted poblano peppers (Seeded and diced)
• 2 cup Fresh fire-roasted corn (Frozen corn will work; reserve the corn cobs if using corn on the cob)
• 0.25 cup Garlic (Chopped)
• 2 tsp Chili powder
• 2 tsp Ground cumin
• 2 tsp Smoked paprika
• 2 tsp Mexican oregano
• 2 tsp Kosher salt
• 1 tsp Black pepper
• 4 cup Chicken stock
• 16 oz Heavy cream or coconut milk (Use one of the two options)
• 1 tbsp Chopped chipotle chilis
• Cholula hot sauce (A few glugs)
• 30 oz White beans (Two 15-ounce cans, drained and rinsed)
• 1 Rotisserie chicken (Pulled)
• Shredded Mexican cheese (Add until hot and melty)
• Cotija cheese (For topping)
• Avocado (For topping)
• Cilantro (For topping)
• Jalapeño (For topping)
• Lime (For topping)
• Crispy cheese taquitos (For serving; recipe was not provided in the source)

Steps

1. 1

   Heat the avocado oil in a large pot over medium heat.

2. 2

   Add the diced onion, seeded and diced poblanos, fire-roasted corn, and chopped garlic. Cook for 5–7 minutes, until the vegetables are softened and slightly caramelized.

3. 3

   Add the chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, Mexican oregano, kosher salt, and black pepper. Stir well and cook for another 1–2 minutes to toast the spices.

4. 4

   Add the chicken stock, chopped chipotle chilis, Cholula, drained white beans, and the reserved corn cobs when available. Simmer over medium heat for 10–15 minutes, allowing the chili to reduce and the flavors to intensify.

5. 5

   Partially blend the chili to thicken it, leaving some of the vegetables and beans intact.

6. 6

   Add the heavy cream or coconut milk, pulled rotisserie chicken, and shredded Mexican cheese. Stir until the chili is hot and the cheese is melted.

7. 7

   Serve topped with avocado, Cotija cheese, cilantro, jalapeño, lime, and crispy cheese taquitos.

Notes

The source mentions reserved corn cobs during simmering, which suggests using them when available, but does not provide a separate amount or detailed preparation. The crispy cheese taquito recipe is not included; the source says it may be provided separately. Heavy cream and coconut milk are presented as alternatives.
