I never have been one for chicken in things that beef so obviously belongs in. Like Chili. But we saw this made on Rachael Ray’s show and decided to make it.
This has a distinct buffalo wing flavor to it, thanks to the hot sauce. Instead of the coriander, I used chili powder. Who has coriander sitting around in their pantry anyway?
I also garnished the chili with some bleu cheese crumbles, which was really good (I love bleu cheese!) If you hate blue cheese, leave it out. It will still be good!
Instead of ground chicken, I used half ground turkey (cause I had it on-hand) and half chopped cooked chicken. If you do it this way, cook the chicken in water in the microwave till it’s done. Chop it up. Follow the recipe for the ground turkey part. Put the cooked chicken in the pot when you put the vegies in. Works great, and I was glad to have that texture, instead of just ground meat.
While you’re cooking, drink the rest of the beer. 🙂
Oh, and if this is a main course, serve it in a bowl, of course, but also double up the recipe if you’re serving more than 3 people.
