Spicy chicken chili made with juicy chicken thighs, fire-roasted green chilies, and sweet potatoes. The perfect supper to warm up a hungry family.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 pounds chicken thighs, boneless, skinless, diced
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 1 tablespoon chili powder
  • 1 tablespoon cumin
  • 2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 2 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1 teaspoon coarse black pepper
  • 1 cup fire-roasted green chilies
  • 1 cup tomato sauce with whole plum tomatoes (preferably San Marzano tomato sauce)
  • 2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled, medium diced
  • 1 can chickpeas, liquid drained
  • 3 cups vegetable broth (or chicken broth)
  • 2 limes for serving (optional)

Instructions

  1. Place a large pot over medium heat. Once heated, drizzle in the olive oil. Add the chicken, onion, chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, salt and pepper. Sauté the chicken until the onions have softened and the juices begin to release from the chicken.
  2. Add the sweet potatoes, tomato sauce, green chilies, chickpeas, and broth.
  3. Lower the heat to medium-low. Place a lid over the pot and cook for 35 minutes or until the sweet potatoes are fork-tender and the broth has slightly thickened.
  4. Serve hot with a garnish of wedges of lime and an optional garnish of fresh chopped cilantro.
