Ingredients

1 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs, trimmed of excess fat and cut into 1/2-inch chunks
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
4 cloves garlic, chopped
2 stalks celery, chopped
1 medium onion, chopped
2 tablespoons chili powder
2 teaspoons ground cumin or 1/2 teaspoon cumin seeds
3 cups reduced-sodium chicken broth
Two 15.5-ounce cans great Northern beans, rinsed and drained
One 14.5-ounce can fire-roasted diced tomatoes
One 8-ounce can tomato sauce
1/4 to 1/3 cup Buffalo-style hot sauce, plus more for serving
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup sour cream
1 teaspoon cider or white wine vinegar
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/3 cup crumbled blue cheese
1 scallion, white and green parts separated, sliced
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Cooked rice, for serving
2 stalks celery, cut into sticks
1 large carrot, cut into sticks

Steps:

For the chili: Sprinkle the chicken with 1/2 teaspoon salt and several grinds of black pepper. Heat the oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook, stirring occasionally, until brown all over, about 6 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium, add the garlic, celery and onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are just softened, about 4 minutes. Stir in the chili powder and cumin to coat the chicken and vegetables. Add the broth, beans, tomatoes, tomato sauce and desired amount of hot sauce. Bring to a simmer, cover and cook until the chicken is tender, 30 to 40 minutes.
For the toppings: Stir together the mayonnaise, sour cream, vinegar, garlic powder and 1 tablespoon water in a small bowl. Stir in the blue cheese and scallion whites. Season with salt and pepper.
To serve, spoon rice into servings bowls and top with the chili. Add a dollop of the blue cheese dressing and a sprinkle of scallion greens. Serve with the celery and carrot sticks and additional hot sauce.
