Different State, Different Ward...Still a Winner

We had our ward's Halloween party and Chili Cook-off this weekend. I made a delicious white chili that's my friend Delee's recipe. When she moved into our ward in VA she created an upset when she beat out several of the traditional winners at that chili cook-off. Then she won first place again the next year. Well, on Friday I won...third place. I'm sure it would have won first if Delee had made it, I didn't have the magic touch or something. But it is GOOD! I hope she won't be mad at me, but I think it should be shared with the world (she posted the recipe on her blog so I don't think I'm sharing top secret stuff). Not only is it so very yummy, but it's incredibly easy.

Delee's White Chili:

Saute 1 lb of chicken cut up in chunks and 1 medium onion in 1 1/2 TBS of oil

In a large pot put:

Sauteed chicken and onions
2 cans Great Northern Beans
1 can chicken broth
1 can Cream of Chicken soup
1 cup water
1 can chopped green chili's
1 can Mexi-corn
1 tsp salt, 1 tsp cumin, 1 tsp oregano, 1/2 tsp pepper

Boil all ingredients

Just before serving add:
1/2 cup whipping cream
1 cup sour cream

You can serve with grated cheese and tortilla chips.

Yeah! I'm so glad you won. Even hough you got the recipe from me I can't take full credit for it... (Steve was like "What? Only third place?") I guess your ward likes the Hot stuff a little more ;) Way to make your mark in the new ward! I'm so proud of you and everything you've been doing. I'll call you soon, now that we're on the same time zone! For another week or two anyway...

I wonder how many entries of this chili we'll have this year in our ward since it did so well for Delee and she won't be entering it...
