Ingredients
• The Protein: 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts.
• The Base:
• 4 cups Chicken Bone Broth.
• 1.5 cups Sour cream.
• 1 yellow onion, chopped.
• 4 cloves of garlic, minced.
• The Heat & Spice:
• 1 jalapeño, diced.
• ½ tbsp dried Oregano.
• The “Street Corn” Element:
• ½ cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese (or a blend with mild cheddar).
• Added suggestion: Fresh or canned sweet corn kernels and a squeeze of lime juice.
Preparation Steps
1. Sauté: In a large pot, sauté the chopped onion, diced jalapeño, and minced garlic until softened and fragrant.
2. Simmer: Add the whole chicken breasts and pour in the chicken bone broth. Bring to a gentle simmer and cook until the chicken is tender enough to shred.
3. Shred: Remove the chicken, shred it with two forks, and return it to the pot.
4. Make it Creamy: Stir in the sour cream and shredded Monterey Jack cheese until fully melted and the chili reaches a smooth, velvety consistency.
5. Season: Add the dried oregano and adjust with salt and pepper to taste.
6. Garnish: Top each bowl with a sprinkle of chili powder, fresh cilantro, and a little extra cheese to mimic the look of Mexican street corn.
