Nothing will warm you from within on a cold winter’s day like Blanco Chile (White Chili).
Blanco Chile cooks up in 25min. and is a breeze to make.
Gather your spices:
1/2c. chopped onion
2-4 medium jalapeno peppers, seeded and finely chopped (be careful not to touch your eyes!)
2 tsp. instant chicken bouillon granules
1 1/2 tsp. chili powder
1 tsp. ground cumin
1Tbl. lime juice
Then gather 1lb. lean ground turkey
2 cans (drained and rinsed) Great Northern Beans
1 bottle of beer (or you may substitute 12oz of chicken broth)
1 cup water
Brown the turkey meat and onion until the turkey is no longer pink
Add all your spices, beer, and water and bring to a boil.
Reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Add beans, stir, and if desired, mash half of the beans with a masher to thicken the chili.
Cook an additional 5 minutes until heated through.
While your chili is simmering, gather your cornbread ingredients.
1 1/2 cups cornbread mix (I used Jiffy)
1 egg
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup corn
1 1/2 Tbl minced jalapeno
1Tbl sugar
Stir together until combined and spoon into a well greased mini muffin pan.
Bake for 12 min. in a preheated oven set at 400 degrees.
Serve Blanco Chile with sour cream, cilantro, jalapeno slices, and lime wedges.
And don’t forget those scrumptious muffins!
Enjoy!

This looks delicious! Your pictures and detailed steps are great! Any idea what I can substitute for the beer in it? No alcohol in this house.
Kim @ Sand and Sisal says
Kelly,
Thank you for the sweet comment! You can absolutely substitute the beer with chicken broth. I often substitute the 1 cup of water with chicken broth also. Broth is a simple and healthy way to add another layer of flavor.
