    Barbecue Chicken Chili-small bowl

    Spring has officially arrived on the calendar but lately some days make me wonder. Rainy windy days, crazy thunderstorms and a sky filled with dark threatening clouds are all reminders that I need to patient with this season's transition. So in the meantime, there's nothing quite as comforting, when there's still a chill in the air, as a bowl of chili that's been simmering on the stove. A twist on your typical beef chili,  Triple Bean Barbecue Chicken Chili is made with juicy tender chicken thighs and flavored with a honey barbecue sauce. Add three types of beans, corn and diced tomatoes, simmer and enjoy!

    Triple Bean Barbecue Chicken Chili

    1 Tbs. oil
    2 lbs. boneless skinless chicken thighs, cut in 1" pieces
    1 onion, chopped, 1 cup
    1 Tbs. chili powder
    1/2 tsp. kosher salt
    1 (16 oz.) can vegetarian fiesta baked beans in their sauce, such as Goya
    1 (15.5 oz.) can red kidney beans, drained
    1 (15 oz.) can white kidney beans, drained
    1 (14.5 oz.) can petite diced tomatoes in thier juices
    1 (8.5 oz.) can whole kernel corn, drained
    2/3 cup honey barbecue sauce, such as Kraft
    2 Tbs. chopped fresh cilantro
    1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

    1. Heat oil in large pot over medium-high heat.

    2. Add chicken; cook until browned, 4-5 minutes.

    3. Stir in onion, chili powder and salt. Cook until onion is just tender, 3-4 minutes.

    4. Add baked beans in their sauce, red kidney beans, white kidney beans, tomatoes and their juices, corn and barbecue sauce.

    5. Reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer, uncovered, 30 minutes or until chicken is cooked through and mixture is hot and bubbly, stirring occasionally.
