Default America's Test Kitchen: White Chicken Chili and cornbread

Made both of these today, and they were great.

The cornbread stuck to my cast iron skillet, but that's another
thread.

Here's the chili:

White Chicken Chili


3 lbs bone-in, skin-on chicken breast halves , trimmed of excess
fat and skin
Table salt and ground black pepper
1 Tbs vegetable oil
3 medium jalapeño chiles
3 poblano chiles (medium), stemmed, seeded, and cut into large
pieces
3 Anaheim chile peppers (medium), stemmed, seeded, and cut into
large pieces
2 medium onions , cut into large pieces (2 cups)
6 medium cloves garlic , minced or pressed through garlic press
(about 2 tablespoons)
1 Tbs ground cumin
1 1/2 tsp ground coriander
2 (14.5-ounce) cans cannellini beans , drained and rinsed
3 cups low-sodium chicken broth
3 Tbs fresh lime juice (from 2 to 3 limes)
1/4 cup minced fresh cilantro leaves
4 scallions , white and light green parts sliced thin



1 Season chicken liberally with salt and pepper. Heat oil in large
Dutch oven over medium-high heat until just smoking. Add chicken, skin
side down, and cook without moving until skin is golden brown, about 4
minutes. Using tongs, turn chicken and lightly brown on other side,
about 2 minutes. Transfer chicken to plate; remove and discard skin.
2 While chicken is browning, remove and discard ribs and seeds from 2
jalapeños; mince flesh. In food processor, process half of poblano
chiles, Anaheim chiles, and onions until consistency of chunky salsa,
ten to twelve 1-second pulses, scraping down sides of workbowl halfway
through. Transfer mixture to medium bowl. Repeat with remaining
poblano chiles, Anaheim chiles, and onions; combine with first batch
(do not wash food processor blade or workbowl).
3 Pour off all but 1 tablespoon fat from Dutch oven (adding additional
vegetable oil if necessary) and reduce heat to medium. Add minced
jalapeños, chile-onion mixture, garlic, cumin, coriander, and 1/4
teaspoon salt. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until vegetables
soften, about 10 minutes. Remove pot from heat.
4 Transfer 1 cup cooked vegetable mixture to now-empty food processor
workbowl. Add 1 cup beans and 1 cup broth and process until smooth,
about 20 seconds. Add vegetable-bean mixture, remaining 2 cups broth,
and chicken breasts to Dutch oven and bring to boil over medium-high
heat. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, covered, stirring
occasionally, until chicken registers 160 degrees (175 degrees if
using thighs) on instant-read thermometer, 15 to 20 minutes (40
minutes if using thighs).
5 Using tongs, transfer chicken to large plate. Stir in remaining
beans and continue to simmer, uncovered, until beans are heated
through and chili has thickened slightly, about 10 minutes.
6 Mince remaining jalapeño, reserving and mincing ribs and seeds (see
note above), and set aside. When cool enough to handle, shred chicken
into bite-sized pieces, discarding bones. Stir shredded chicken, lime
juice, cilantro, scallions, and remaining minced jalapeño (with seeds
if desired) into chili and return to simmer. Adjust seasonings with
salt and pepper and serve.
