Ingredients

  • 2 C. green chile chicken see above for link to recipe
  • 2 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 3 Hatch green chiles roasted, seeded & diced or 2 cans of green chiles
  • 1 jalapeno seeds removed and diced
  • 1 small white onion diced
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 1/2 tsp chili powder
  • 2 tsp cumin
  • 14 oz can corn
  • 1/2 C. cilantro chopped
  • 2 C. white beans cooked & drained (see link above for recipe) or 2 cans
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 3 C. chicken broth
  • 2 Tbsp maseca corn flour

Optional - for Garnish:

  • cilantro chopped
  • sour cream
  • green chiles chopped

Instructions

  • In your instant pot, push saute and add the jalapeno, onion, and garlic and saute for 3-4 minutes or until soft.
  • Turn the saute feature OFF.
  • In your blender, combine 1 C. of the drained beans with 1/2 can of the corn, 2 of the green chiles (or 1 can if you are using canned versus fresh), onion, garlic, jalapeno, cumin, chili powder and salt - blend until a thick paste forms.
  • This paste is the base for your chili.
  • Pour the blended paste into your instant pot with the chicken broth, remaining cup of beans, remaining corn, and green chile chicken.
  • Blend 1/4 C. of the soup with the maseca corn flour to make a thick paste, then add back to the instant pot & stir in until well blended. This is not mandatory, but will add both taste and texture to your chili.
  • Put the lid on the instant pot, and turn the knob to seal.
  • Place the pot on high (manual) for 5 minutes to allow the flavors to blend.
  • At the end of the 5 minutes, allow for a natural release for 10 minutes, then do a quick release.
  • Adjust your seasonings as necessary, stir in the 1/2 C. chopped cilantro.
  • Ladle into bowls and serve with additional chopped cilantro, sour cream or additional green chiles for garnish.
