White Bean Chicken Chili

(Dairy Free, Gluten Free)

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 medium onion, chopped

1 clove of garlic, minced

1/3 cup cassava flour (Here is where I get mine from, Otto's Naturals)

1 tablespoon chili powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 can coconut milk

2 cups chicken broth

2 cups frozen corn

1 - 15 ounce cans cannellini beans, drained and rinsed

2 cups boneless chicken, cut into small pieces

1 - 4 ounce can chopped green chilies 

1/4 cup fresh chopped cilantro

In a dutch oven heat olive oil over medium heat, add onion and garlic.  Cook until onions are tender.  Stir in flour, salt and chili powder, mix well.  Add milk and chicken broth, stir until thickened slightly.  Use a whisk to help break up the flour and to make it creamy.  Add remaining ingredients except cilantro.  Cover and cook for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.  Taste and to check for flavor and add more salt as necessary.  Stir in cilantro and serve.
