Making now! But I added tomatillos and used carnitas
instead of chicken bc I have a ton in the freezer to use up.
Perfect recipe for today! It’s snowing and super cold
here!
I just made this. Love how fast it came together. I kicked it up with paprika and cayenne. Broth would’ve made it better, no doubt. I used plain water. It’s missing something though. I may add a tomatillo because I miss the tomato flavor in a traditional chili.
reading is fundamental!
i didnt see the part about pureeing in a blender until 1/2 way through it! (i mashed them by hand).
im not sure why it turned out to be so soupy for me..took out some of the liquid before i served it..
GREAT flavour and looks like the pic (minus the sour cream), so im happy!
(the sink full of dishes is not! lol)
