The Chili
2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts cut into 1-inch cubes
15 ounces can of great northern beans, rinsed and drained
15 ounces can of corn, rinsed and drained
8 cloves of garlic, minced
4 serrano chiles, seeded and minced
1/2 small can of green chiles
1/2 cup orange juice
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon Mexican oregano
2 teaspoons commercially prepared adobo seasoning
1/4 teaspoon cayenne
3/4 cup chicken stock
1-2 pinches salt, to taste
1 tablespoon olive oil
The Toppings
cotija cheese
chopped cilantro
lime wedges
sliced avocado

1
Heat the olive oil in a heavy saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion and serrano and saute for 5 minutes; add 6 of the garlic cloves and cook 30 seconds more. Stir in the cumin.
2
Dump in the beans, corn, Mexican oregano, chicken stock, OJ, green chiles, adobo and cayenne. Bring to a simmer. Cook 8-10 minutes to meld the flavors.
3
Go at it with a potato masher to mash up some of the beans and give body to the chili (depending on how thick you like your chili).
4
Toss in the chicken cubes and poach them in the chili until tender, about 10 minutes.
5
Add the remaining 2 cloves of garlic for SUPER GARLIC PUNCH.
6
Taste and adjust salt level, if necessary.
7
Serve with toppings, allowing people to doctor their chili as they wish.
