[ Edited ]

This is our favorite. I got the recipe when we lived in SA from a friend who was born and raised there!  Smiley Happy

San Antonio Chili

 

2 lbs. skinless, boneless chicken breasts

 

3 (16 oz.) cans Great Northern beans, drained and rinsed

 

1 medium onion, chopped 

 

1 clove garlic, minced 

 

2 (4 oz.) cans whole green chilies, cut in large pieces 

 

2 tsp. ground cumin 

 

1 tsp. ground oregano 


1 1/2 tsp. cayenne pepper

 

1/2 tsp. salt

 

1 (14 1/2 oz.) can chicken broth 

 

1 c. water

 

Cut chicken in one-inch pieces and brown if desired (I don't brown.). Put all ingredients in Crock Pot and stir to mix. Cook on low for 10 hours, high for 6 hours.

Re: 🥣 Please Share Your Favorite Soup Or Chile Recipes

My favorite chili is a recipe I got here in 2017 from a poster named  Mimi. It's a slow cooker recipe.

 

Chili from MIMI on QVC

4-23-2017 QVC's Recipes Forum

 

  • 2 lbs ground beef
  • 1 (29 ounce) cans tomato sauce
  • 1 (29 ounce) cans red beans (with liquid) (not kidney beans)
  • 1 (29 ounce) cans pinto beans (with liquid)
  • 1 cup diced onion (1 medium onion)
  • 1 can original Rotel tomatoes
  • 2  teaspoons cumin powder
  • 2 tablespoons chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 T. ketchup or barbeque sauce

Brown hamburger and onion.  Put everything in the Crockpot and stir.  After it cooks for a while, if it is too thick you can add some water to it. 

 

I guarantee you this is the best chili ever!

 

If you like sweet chili, you can add up to a 1/4 cup ketchup or barbeque sauce.  I just squirt some in without measuring.  LOL

Above was what Mimi said. Nomalicious.

I must have 30 of the country style gravy mix in my pantry!  I am on AD for Heartland Chicken and get pkgs w/ every delivery.

 

We usually eat our chicken without it.

 

I never thought to add them to a chowder or soup!  I made a pot last night.....

 

Thanks!  Now I will finally be able to use them up!

I'm making a pot of this soup this weekend, but need to pick up a packet of gravy mix before I do.  Wish I could borrow one from you for the time being.

Re: 🥣 Please Share Your Favorite Soup Or Chile Recipes

I'm really not much of a cook, I do make a Lentil Soup, I got it at a WW meeting and it is zero points.

 

1 container of chicken broth (32 oz)

1 package of steamed lentils (it's in the produce section)

peeled and sliced carrots (I love carrots so I like a lot)

chopped onion and chopped celery (I don't measure)

1 small can of diced tomatoes (I don't drain it)

 

Spray a pot with Pam, saute the carrots, celery, and onions. Pour in the broth, tomatoes and lentils. I let it come to a slight boil and then cover the pot, The lentils are already cooked, your just waiting for the carrots to soften, I usually let the soup go about 30 or 35 minutes. Add salt and pepper to taste.

Re: 🥣 Please Share Your Favorite Soup Or Chile Recipes

My 18 year old granddaughter has introduced me to the world of TikTok.

Yes.....I know.

Although we watch different things, I have come across many great recipes on this site.

I save the video and then when I want to cook it, I do.

If you are a Keto person, there are many great recipes to watch.

It's like a fast cooking channel.

Love it.

Re: 🥣 Please Share Your Favorite Soup Or Chile Recipes

My DHs simple hamburger soup.

Which is also a quick throw-together:

hamburger, onion, potatoes, tomatoes, water.

 

I come along, though, and make it my way:

Saute the onion separately w/ a pinch of sugar. This prevents any onion aftertaste.

 

Boil the potato cubes separately. Skim off any starch, and use some of the liquid for the soup.

 

Potato option: use perogis in place of. (no special treatment here.)

 

For extra seasoning: add sherry to the pot, sweet basil to the onions, vegetable or meat stock instead of water. Maybe a pinch of apple pie spice or cloves, besides S & P.

Re: 🥣 Please Share Your Favorite Soup Or Chile Recipes

I like "normal" chili like Mimi's, but I read a reference to Cincinnati chili in "Mom's Best One-Dish Suppers" and just looked it up. The recipe I'm looking at has the usual ground beef and tomato (sauce/paste), onion, and garlic, but the seasonings include unsweetened chocolate, cinnamon, allspice, cumin, cloves, cayenne, and chili powder. Toppings also vary.

 

I'm familiar with the depth and interest a small amount of cinnamon can add to an otherwise ordinary beef stew, but this full-on Middle Eastern angle goes far beyond that. Does anyone have experience with this variety of chili?

@noodleann Start a "Chili" thread and see how many variations you get posted.  Many exist.

I'm not interested in starting a thread or looking at other variations. I was asking specifically about Cincinnati chili.
