White Chicken Chili

In a medium heavy bottomed pot, warm the oil over medium-high heat. Add the onion and saute until it softens, about 3 minutes. Add in the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 20 seconds. Add in all the seasonings and cook, stirring, for 1 minute.

Pour in the broth and chiles. Bring to a gentle bubble and simmer, uncovered, for 10 minutes.

Stir in the chopped chicken, beans, cream cheese, and lime juice; simmer for a few more minutes to warm through and allow the cream cheese to melt.

Ladle into bowls and top each serving with a little Monterey Jack cheese, scallions, chopped cilantro, avocado, and crushed tortilla chips. Enjoy!
