BUFFALO CHICKEN CHILI (Adapted from Kevin Closet Cooking)

1 pound ground chicken
1 TBSP oil
1 onion, diced
1/2 cup celery, sliced
1/2 cup carrots, diced
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1 tsp ground cumin
1 cup beer (or chicken broth)
1 (15 ounce) can diced tomatoes
1 (15 ounce) can cannellini beans, drained and rinsed
1 tsp paprika
1/2 tsp oregano
1/4 tsp cayenne
1/2 cup Buffalo sauce (or to taste) I used Frank’s
salt and pepper to taste

Cook the chicken in a large pan over medium heat and set aside.

Heat the oil in the pan, add the onions, celery and carrots and cook until soft, about 10-15 minutes.

Add the garlic and cumin and cook until fragrant, about a minute.

Add the beer or broth and deglaze the pan.

Add chicken, tomatoes, beans, paprika, oregano, cayenne and hot sauce and simmer for 15 minutes.
