Lazy Chicken Chili

I came up with this recipe because I wanted to do a fast meal on the stove that would keep me warm and have enough for lunch for a few days. This is an alternative recipe that functions essentially the same as the Lazy Garden chili and allows for something different if you have been having a lot of beef. This recipe was also designed to be quick and easy as it is written with about 10 minutes of prep when you have a bad can opener and 20 minutes of cooking before it is ready.

Lazy Chicken Chili
Something with chicken

Ingredients:
2- 12.5 oz cans chicken
1 32 oz chicken broth
2-15 oz cans white beans
1-4 oz can green chilies
1-14.5 oz can fire roasted tomatoes
1-15 oz can sweet corn
1/4 red onion (chopped)
1 each red, yellow, and green bell peppers (chopped)
1/2 tsp each cumin garlic powder
1/4 tsp ginger

Directions:
Drain and rinse the beans
Open all cans and combine all canned food into a 6 quart pot
chop onion and peppers and add to the pot
add seasonings to the pot stir and bring to a boil
lower heat and simmer for 20 minutes
serve and enjoy

Suggestions:
to make the chili taste better use fresh or frozen vegetables.
If substituting fresh chicken breast cook it in the bottom of the pot in 3 TBSP olive oil with the seasonings and salt to taste.
