Mediterranean Chili

Fusilli was inspired to make this when they didn't have the ingredients she was looking for at the local store. I'm calling it mediterranean chili because that's how it turned out. I think this could also work with fish instead of chicken.

• Heat olive oil in a pan. Once hot, brown the chicken breasts (bone in) on both sides. Remove and set aside.
• In the same pan, sauté onions and then add red pepper
• Add garlic, white wine and chicken. Turn temp. to low and cover until the chicken is cooked through
• Remove chicken, set aside to cool
• Add white beans and tomato, simmering until heated through
• Shred the chicken, adding it back with chopped Kalamata olives and cilantro
• Top with crumbled feta cheese and serve

Chilly Chili


It finally got cold enough in Chicago for me to start wanting soup.  So yesterday I went to the store and grabbed everything I needed to make my Mom's chili recipe.  She sent it to me over email a LONG time ago.  So the printed version I have has all kinds of spills and stains on it from me making the chili every fall and winter.  Why does chili always taste better with corn muffins? And for me it's not the swanky gourmet kind made from scratch, but the Jiffy corn muffin mix in a box for 35 cents from the store.  I love the design on the box and that it still costs under 50 cents! I made this on Saturday afternoon and made enough to last me through this next chilly week.
