    White Chili with Chicken and Turkey Sausage

    It seems that my mind has been stew and soup-focused as of late. Well, it might be the weather or sales marketing for all things fall and warm, but there is nothing like eating soup or stew on a rainy day. The weather has been overcast here in Florida for the last few days, so my mind is on White Chicken Chili today.

    A combination of things inspired this white chili recipe; First, my good friend Debbie introduced me to the concept. Second, a jar of Frontera Tomatillo Salsa is sitting on the shelf. In last week's post, I discussed this favorite pantry product and how I used it. So, here is one awesome recipe to use this fantastic salsa, my friends!

    Let's begin, step numero uno to make this magnificent white chili!

    To make a white chicken chili recipe you will need a 2 or 4-quart saucepot. I used my Rockcrok to make this deliciously spicy recipe: a 4-quart stoneware dutch oven. The Rockcrok can be used on the stove, oven, or microwave. It can also go immediately into the fridge or freezer after cooking, the same way from the freezer to the stove. This is one to consider if you are in the market for a crockpot-like device. Plus, the Rockcrok has the option of a portable burner. Great for potluck parties or to set and forget over the counter, as I did with this amazing white chicken chili.

    I started by warming up Rockcrok to medium heat. I pour about 1 tablespoon of olive oil to heat but not smoke.

    Step dos!

    Add all ingredients to the pot but in a sequence. You know I love my food with tons of flavor.

    Once the oil was hot, I squeezed the hot Italian Turkey sausages into the pot. I seared the meats slightly and mashed them a bit to break them apart. Then, I added ground chicken and cooked turkey sausage and ground chicken until golden. I also continued breaking down any large lumps of meat or sausage. Once the meat was golden, I added small diced onions and chopped garlic. I let the onions cook until just translucent. This brings out the juices of the onions and garlic.

    Step number Tres!

    Next, I transferred my pot from the stove and into the portable burner I had preheated to a low setting. I added the entire content of the Frontera Tomatillo Salsa and rinsed the beans from a can of great northern beans. To maximize the flavor of my white chili, I filled the tomatillo jar halfway with chicken broth and added that to the pot. Placed the lid on the Rockcrok and set the kitchen timer for one hour.
