I am having a green chili craving...

With all the cold weather we have been having, I am starting to crave some good old fashioned green chili stew.  I had a chicken in the freezer, so I thought I would make it with chicken instead of ground beef today.  In a few hours my apartment will be filled with the delicious smell of chicken and seasoning, and we will all begin to drool.  Problem is I may be the only one eating that huge pot.  Then again, maybe that isn't a problem...(maybe I can set some chicken and broth aside for chicken noodle soup for the kids).

Here is the recipe I use.  This time, I will be using freshly made chicken stock.  Usually, I just use the store bought kind if there is not any homemade in the freezer.

Green Chili Stew

1-2 lbs of cooked ground beef, chicken, turkey, or shredded/diced chicken

1 large can of tomatoes drained

16 oz of green chili of choice

2-3 cans chicken broth, can also add water, depending on taste preference

2-3 large potatoes

1 large onion chopped

Garlic and salt to taste (I use a lot of both)

Put all ingredients in a pot and bring to a boil.  Let simmer long enough for potatoes to soften.  Serve with warm flour tortillas, corn bread or saltines.

Yum!  But my favorite way is still with ground beef.

Maybe all the nutrients will get me over this cold I developed yesterday...that has had me awake since 3am this morning.

What is your favorite cold or sick day recipe?
