Paleo Chicken Chili

December 14, 2015 By Shannah Coe 1 Comment

The weather is starting to really get cold which means it is time to start breaking out the sweaters and ladling out bowls of delicious chili. Paleo chicken chili is hearty and full of flavor. It is the perfect thing to warm you up on a cold, winter day. It makes a bunch too so you can look forward to leftovers!

Paleo Chicken Chili

Chicken chili tends to be white sauced and include beans. This one is a little more Mexican inspired and features a hearty tomato based sauce. You can easily change up any of the vegetables so pick your favorites!

Paleo Chicken Chili Ingredients:

2 lbs chicken breast, cut into 1 inch pieces
½ Tbsp chili powder
1 Tbsp cumin
½ Tbsp Mexican oregano
1 tsp paprika
1 tsp onion powder
2 tsp garlic powder
¼ tsp cayenne pepper
1 Tbsp oil
1 onion, finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 can diced tomatoes with chiles {i.e. Rotel}
1 can fire roasted tomatoes
½ cup chicken broth
2 bell peppers, sliced
1 cup mushrooms, halved

Let’s Make It: 

1) In a bowl, combine chili powder, cumin, oregano, paprika, onion powder, garlic powder and cayenne pepper. Add chicken and stir to coat.

2) In a large pot, heat 1 Tbsp oil over medium heat. Add onion and sauté for 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes or until fragrant.

3) Add chicken, Rotel, tomatoes and broth to the pot. Bring to a boil and then reduce heat to a simmer. Cook for 10 minutes and then add bell peppers. Cook for an additional 10 minutes before adding mushrooms. Cook for 3-5 minutes.

I add sliced avocado to the top of my chili and it is the perfect addition. I love the little bit of creaminess it adds to counter the heat of the chili. Speaking heat, you can totally customize this chili to be as spicy as you want. I like mine a little on the hotter side so you may consider toning down the chili powder if you prefer a milder chili.
