Ingredients
Base Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter or ghee
- 1 large yellow or red onion, finely chopped
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1.5 pounds zucchini, chopped into ½ inch pieces
- 1 teaspoon unrefined salt
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- ½ teaspoon ground coriander
- 1 pound ground chicken
- 2 cans (4 oz) diced green chiles (mild)

Instructions
Cooking Instructions
- Heat the butter or ghee in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat until melted. Add the onion and cook, stirring often until beginning to soften, about 8 minutes. Add the garlic, zucchini, salt and spices and continue to cook, stirring to coat the veggies in the spice mixture for another minute or two.
- Add the ground chicken and use a wooden spoon to break up the meat a bit. Cook until no longer pink inside. Stir in the chiles, beans and chicken stock. Bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 30-45 minutes or until the chili has thickened a bit and the flavors have had a chance to meld. Taste for seasonings and season with more salt and pepper if needed.
- Divide between bowls and top with radishes, cilantro, yogurt and freshly squeezed lime juice.
Notes
This recipe tastes great (and even better) after an overnight in the fridge. Gently reheat leftovers for up to one week.
