Black and white checkered chili


MAKES 6 SERVINGS

1 tablespoon vegetable oil

1 medium onion, chopped

1 clove garlic, pressed or minced

1 (4-ounce) can chopped green chilies

3 cups chicken broth

1 tablespoon chili powder

1 (14.5-ounce) can diced tomatoes, drained

1 (15-ounce) can black beans, drained

1 (15-ounce) can cannellini beans, rinsed and drained

1/2 cup cilantro, chopped

Heat oil in a 3-quart saucepan over medium-high heat. Saute onion and garlic till translucent.

Stir in remaining ingredients, except cilantro. Heat to boiling; reduce heat. Cover and simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Sprinkle with chopped cilantro and serve.

Serving suggestions: Some corn muffins (homemade or storebought) and a big spinach salad will round this off nicely.
