Step-by-Step Instructions
- Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add onion and bell peppers, sautéing until softened, about 5-7 minutes. Stir in garlic and cook for another minute.
- Add chicken to the pot, sprinkle with Cajun seasoning, cumin, paprika, and optional cayenne. Cook for about 5-7 minutes until chicken is no longer pink.
- Pour in chicken broth, drained beans, and diced green chilies. Stir and bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat.
- Reduce heat to low, cover, and let the chili simmer for at least 30 minutes to 1 hour for depth of flavor.
- Stir in corn and cook for about 5 minutes until heated through.
- If desired, stir in heavy cream or sour cream for added richness.
- Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve chili in bowls garnished with cilantro, cheddar cheese, and a dollop of sour cream or Greek yogurt, with lime wedges on the side.
