WHITE CHICKEN CHILI WITH SALSA VERDE

Fresh poblano and serrano chiles are to thank for this chili's vibrant, warming flavor. It's the perfect dish to serve on a chilly winter night when you need a hearty bowl of chicken, veggies, and beans. The chili also comes together in just one pot for added convenience and super-easy cleanup. As well as the chiles, chicken, and beans, it features a medley of onions, garlic, chili powder, cumin, coriander, oregano, salsa verde, lime juice, and fresh cilantro. You can freeze any leftovers in 1-cup containers for easy, portion-controlled lunches for another time. Leftovers make a great filling for soft tacos or burritos.
