Hot Diggity Good (o.k., it's really called white chili)

I don't have a picture of this.  Because everyone eats it allll gone before I get a chance.  It's that good.  Seriously good.  It won a prize at our ward chili contest-- and these people know how to cook.  So I present to you (Merry Christmas) White Chili.**Recipe from Jenny Winks, favorite wife of my favorite cousin.  Thanks Jenny!**

White Chili

Sautee together:
1 lb cooked chicken
1 onion, chopped
1 1/2 tsp. garlic powder (it sounds like a LOT- it is- but it's key in what makes the recipe so yummy.  So don't skimp!)
1 tsp oil

In a large pot combine:
the sauteed mixture above
2 16 oz cans of white beans (drained)
3 1/2 C. chicken broth
4 oz can diced green chilis
1 tsp salt 1/2 tsp. pepper
1 tsp cumin
1 tsp oregano

Boil 30 minutes uncovered stirring VERY FREQUENTLY
Remove from heat.  Add 1 C. sour cream, 1/2 C. whipping cream.
This makes a pretty small pot of chili.  I usually double it for our family.
Enjoy!
