  • 2 tbsp avocado oil
  • 3 medium chicken breasts, trimmed and cubed
  • 3/4 cup diced onion
  • 1 tbsp minced garlic
  • 1/2 tbsp jalapeño, minced
  • 1/4 tsp paprika
  • 1/2 tsp cumin
  • 1/2 tsp chili powder
  • 1/2 tsp oregano

  • 1/4 cup sweet pimientos, sliced
  • 2 cans white beans, drained

Instructions

  • In a large pot, heat oil until hot but not smoking. Add in cubed chicken to cook/brown for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Remove chicken and set aside. Add in onion, garlic and jalapeño to sauté for 3-5 minutes. Then pour in seasonings, reduce heat and stir for 3-5 minutes.
  • Pour in chicken stock, chili’s, pimientos, white beans and lime juice. Using a potato masher, press down on the beans several times to slightly mash. Cover the pot, bring to a boil, then reduce heat to simmer for 20-30 minutes.
