I'm making :

Cheater Chicken Chile Verde

Too hot to use the oven so I cheat and use an already roasted bird and

hot green enchilada sauce

Also too hot to cook up beans from scratch so I use canned.

In big deep pot

Saute med size chopped purple and white onion

with 8-10 cloves garlic chopped

2 finely diced jalapenos ( or more)

When starting to soften add:

cumin , cinnamon , thyme and oregano , s+p , to taste.

Stir in diced whole chicken

Let brown a smidge then

add 2 -3 cans 15oz?

Cannelini Beans

(or Black Eyed Peas or Black Beans)

and a big can 32oz? of

HOT Green Enchilada Sauce

Don't worry , it won't be too hot

but get a bottle of Green Siracha

or roasted green chile salsa if you want to kick up the Scoville level.

Or ifyou like it REALLY HOT toss in 5 or more Chile Tepins.

Simmer for 20-30 minutes sub -boil

so all flavors blend.

Serve with grated cheese of choice

medium cheddar, pepper jack, feta

and chopped cilantro +green onions thinly sliced radishes.

Steamed yellow corn tortillas or

Blue tortila chips
