Southwest Chicken Chili

Ross's cousin, Alex, is a chef and he made this for us one night. It is delicious! Enjoy : )

Southwest Chicken Chili

1/2 stick of butter

1 diced onion
1 diced bell pepper
1 diced celery stalk
2 diced jalapenos
2 Tbsp chopped garlic

2 cans broth (whatever kind you have/like)
1 can black beans, rinsed and drained
1 can navy beans, rinsed and drained
1 can petite diced tomatoes, undrained
2+ Tbsp Sweet-n-Spicy rub
3 Tbsp cilantro
Cooked Chicken (Alex roasted his own with the sweet-n-spicy rub. I used about 3/4 of the meat off of a rotisserie chicken. I said I cheated. Ross said I'm smart. I love my husband : ) )

In a large saucepan or dutch oven, melt the butter. Then saute the 1st set of ingredients.

Add other ingredients, using 2 Tbsp of rub.

Bring to a boil, then simmer.

Thicken with cornstarch, if you'd like.

Add more spice, if needed.
