Ingredients

  1. 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken thighs
  2. 1/4 cup vegetable oil, plus more for drizzling
  3. Kosher salt and freshly ground white pepper
  4. 3 celery stalks, cut into medium dice (about 1 cup)
  5. 1 medium onion, cut into medium dice (about 2 cups)
  6. 1 yellow bell pepper, cut into medium dice (about 1 cup)
  7. 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  8. 4 cups (1 quart) chicken stock, warmed
  9. Two 15-ounce cans Great Northern beans
  10. Two 4-ounce cans chopped green chiles
  11. 2 teaspoons garlic powder
  12. 2 teaspoons ground cumin
  13. 1 teaspoon minced fresh rosemary
  14. 2 green tomatoes, cut into large dice (about 2 cups)
  15. 1/2 to 1 teaspoon cayenne, depending on how much spice you like
  16. Sour cream, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  2. Drizzle the chicken with some oil, season with salt and pepper and put on a baking sheet. Roast until the internal temperature registers 165 degrees F on a meat thermometer, 15 to 20 minutes. Set aside until cool enough to handle, then cut into large dice.
  3. Meanwhile, add 1/4 cup oil to a large Dutch oven and heat over medium heat. When hot, add the celery, onions and bell peppers and saute until tender, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the flour, stir to coat the vegetables and cook until the flour starts to brown, about 3 minutes. Whisk in the warm chicken stock, stirring until combined. Add the beans, chiles, garlic powder, cumin, rosemary and green tomatoes and bring to a simmer, cooking until the mixture starts to thicken, 15 to 20 minutes.
  4. Add the diced chicken and cayenne and season with salt and pepper. Cover and cook for another 10 minutes to warm through. Serve garnished with sour cream.

I love this recipe. Did it in the crock pot with a Costco roasted chicken. I subbed the flower for a corn starch slurry, and fire roasted 2 cups worth of Tomatillos and then diced them for the green tomatoes.

Delicious! I had to sub chili powder for the green chiles, frozen corn for the tomatoes and used frozen onions w peppers and it cooked up well.

After reading the reviews, I decided to cook the chicken, well seasoned with salt and pepper, in the Dutch Oven first: Heat Dutch Oven over Medium High heat, add vegetable oil. When hot, add chicken, cook and get a good sear on both sides. I used chicken breast, which was fine. Remove chicken breast for use later, turn down heat and add enough olive oil to start recipe, scraping up browned bits when cooking the vegetables…

This is so good, surprisingly good.  The green tomatoes almost turned me off, but since I liked all the other ingredients, I decided to try it.  My husband and I watched her make it on TV and we both said it sounded good.  It was so simple and excellent.  I’ve made it many times since.

The flavor was really good I missed having some green chillies in the house but even so I added a little chili powder and it came out great . Thank you

I love this recipe! I substitute green taco sauce though for the green tomatoes because I can’t find them in my area. Easy and delicious!!!
Michael Herrera
Excellent and easy. I did make my own seasoned beans, because my husband doesn’t like the taste of canned and because I didn’t have but 2 small leftover chicken breast, I added a couple of pork sausages that I picked up at my butcher’s. Also had some leftover barley and roasted corn, so threw that in. Why not, right? Even without these changes, I could tell how good the original recipe is and how easy it is to make it your own. Wouldn’t hesitate to make it exactly as written if I don’t have leftovers I want to get rid of.

DELICIOUS! My frist try on a  Damaris Phillips recipe. Easy to make. I couldn’t fine green tomatoes, used 2 under ripe red’s and it worked out great, even enjoyed the extra color from the red tomatoes. Will certainly do again.
