White Chicken Chili Delicioso

Ingredients

• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
• 1 onion, chopped
• 3 cloves garlic, crushed
• 1 (4-6 ounce) can chopped green chile peppers
• 2 teaspoons ground cumin
• 1 tablespoon fresh cilantro
• 2 (14.5 ounce) cans chicken broth

• (OPTIONAL) Monterey Jack cheese and/or sour cream (to top)

Directions

1. Heat the oil in a large saucepan over medium-low heat. Slowly cook and stir the onion until tender. Mix in the garlic, green chile peppers, cumin, and 1/2 of the cilantro. Continue to cook and stir the mixture until tender, about 3 minutes.
