Soup Nazi's Mexican Chicken Chili

Recipe #71194 | 5¼ hours | 10 min prep | add private note

This isn't soup but its a copycat of something served at the famous Soup Nazi's Restaurant in New York City. People line up just to eat there!!

SERVES 4 -6 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

ON THE SIDE

Directions

  1. 1
    Sauté the chicken breast in olive oil in a large pot over medium/high heat about 7 - 10 minutes per side; remove to a side dish & allow to cool.
  2. 2
    Add the remaining ingredients to the unrinsed pot and return heat to high.
  3. 3
    Shred the chicken by hand into bite-sizes pieces and place the pieces back into the pot.
  4. 4
    Bring mixture to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 4-5 hours; do not cover the pot as this will allow evaporation & thickening.
  5. 5
    Stir the mixture often so that many of the chicken pieces shred into smaller bits and prevent the thickening mixture from sticking to the bottom of the pot.
  6. 6
    Combine some chopped Italian parsley with sour cream and serve it on the side for topping the chili, if desired.
  7. 7
    I like it topped with shredded cheddar!

    This soup was very tasty! I wouldn't call it chili because it had more of a liquid consistency to it. I like spice so I added extra cayenne pepper, extra fresh jalepeno, and bought diced tomatoes with jalepenos in them! It tasted great!

    This was a good chili, but not great IMHO. I was confounded at the huge amount of liquid for the amount of ingredients, so I used 4 cups of chicken broth and only 1 cup of water. After cooking on low for 3 hours, I still had a pot of very watery chili. It was then that I realized that this recipe is not meant to be cooked covered, but uncovered! That is the only way this dish will reduce and thicken, which it did after another 3 hours. Because of this, do not try making the chili in your crockpot because it just won't reduce and get thick.

    This is one of our favorite "chili" recipes. As others have noted, it is not as thick as traditional chili. I am not sure if the Soup Nazi intended it as a Chili soup, or true chili, but either way, the taste is fantastic. It really is crucial to leave the lid off to cook, and to cook it for the full amount of time in order for the correct amount of liquid to evaporate off. Oh, don't forget to make some fresh rolls to go with it! YUM! Off to start a pot right now
