Description

This is delicious. I won a chili cookoff with this recipe. For a garnish we sprinkle with blue cheese or goat cheese.

Ingredients

  • ½ sticks Butter
  • 2 Tablespoons Olive Oil, Divided
  • 1 cup Diced Onion
  • 1 cup Diced Celery
  • 1 cup Diced Carrot
  • 3 Tablespoons Jalapenos Diced
  • 5 cloves Garlic
  • 4 pounds Chicken Breast (You Could Mix It Up With Boneless, Skinless Chicken Thighs), Diced
  • ½ cups Sherry Or Dry White Wine
  • 2 cups Chicken Stock
  • 14 ounces, fluid Crushed Tomatoes
  • 8 ounces, fluid Tomato Sauce
  • 12 ounces, fluid Wing Sauce
  • 3 ounces, fluid Franks Cayenne Hot Sauce
  • 1 can Nacho Cheese Soup, 10 Ounce Can
  • Cornstarch, To Thicken

Preparation

Heat pot with olive oil and butter. Saute onions, carrots, celery, jalepenos and garlic in pot until softened. Once softened remove from pot and set aside. Add more olive oil to pot and brown chicken in batches. Once finished browning chicken deglaze the pan with sherry or white wine. Add veggie mixture and browned chicken back into the pot. Add 2 cups chicken stock , crushed tomatoes, and tomato sauce and let cook for around 10 minutes, then add wing sauce and hot sauce. Dump in can of nacho cheese soup, combine and simmer until heated through. If chili isn’t desired thickness add a bit of corn starch into a bit of water and pour some of this ‘slurry’ into the chili to thicken. Allow to simmer.

This was delish, although a little on the hot side for my wimpy young ‘uns. The perfect soup to warm us up on a cold Midwest night. Thanks for a great recipe.

I used Franks cayenne hot sauce and some miscelaneous
wing sauce I came acrossed in my cupboard. You could always make your own its just cayenne sauce and butter. Its pretty hard to screw up.

What is the wings sauce you use, is it more Frank’s Red Hot, or I think Frank’s makes a wing sauce … This looks amazing, I can’t wait to try it!

Oh my goodness, this sounds fantastic! How dare you post this in the middle of the summer!? I’m dying to make it, but can’t stand the thought of heating up my place! I’ll definitely give it a shot when it gets cooler!

This was pretty tasty but fairly labor intensive. I only used 2.5 lbs of chicken because it’s all I had – 4 lbs might’ve been a bit too much. I made a few substitutions to cut down on the spicy because no one in my family likes really hot stuff, so I just used chopped green chiles (from a can) in place of the jalepenos, and I omitted the hot sauce. The wing sauce I used is fairly spicy on its own. We also topped it with jack cheese (bleu would also be good but I forgot to get some.)
