CHILI WITH CHICKEN AND BEANS



Chili with Chicken and Beans image

If you like, spice up this robust chili by adding chopped fresh hot chile peppers. You can also replace the canned beans with cooked dried beans; if you do so, use the bean cooking liquid to replace half the chicken stock.

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 tablespoon olive oil
3 teaspoons whole cumin seed
2 medium onions, finely chopped (about 3 cups)
5 garlic cloves, roughly chopped
1 green bell pepper, finely chopped
2 boneless and skinless chicken breasts (about 1 3/4 pounds), cut into 1-inch cubes
2 teaspoons chili powder
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 dried bay leaf
One 28-ounce can chopped tomatoes with their juice
