| 1 lb ground chicken breast, skinless | | 12 cup onions chopped | | 1/2 cup bell peppers chopped | | 3 cup water | | 15 oz tomato sauce | | 15 oz stewed tomatoes undrained | | 2 tsp chili powder | | 1 tsp salt | | 1/4 tsp black pepper | | 2 cup frozen mixed vegetables thawed | | 1 cup alphabet pasta uncooked |
| | In a kettle, combine chicken , onions , and bell peppers . Cook over medium high heat, stirring occasionally, until chicken is no longer pink. Add water, tomato sauce , stewed tomatoes , chili powder , salt , and black pepper. Continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until chili comes to a boil. Add mixed vegetables and pasta . Reduce heat to medium low. Continue cooking, stirring often, until flavors are blended, 20 minutes. | | NOTES : You won't be able to find ground chicken breast at your local supermarket because they don't sell it, unfortunately. I buy the regular boneless skinless chicken breasts and grind them with my own meat grinder. This works very well. If you don't want to use ground chicken, use whatever meat you have on hand. I usually interchange turkey light meat and ground chicken depending on what I have around. | | If you have problems finding the alphabet pasta in the ABC Vegetables No Chili at your local supermarket, you can substitute a pasta of your choice. If I'm low on one I use whatever I have on hand. The different pasta doesn't change the flavor. |
