Directions
Makes 8 each one cup servings. Warm spices in large pot. Add vegetables and olive oil to warmed spices. Sauté on med/high heat for several minutes. Increase heat to high and add tomato sauce and water. Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally. Add chicken thighs and return to boil. Cover and lower heat and simmer until chicken thighs are cooked, about 30 minutes. Remove chicken and set aside. Uncover and simmer chili until thickness desired; checking regularly. I prefer a thick chili which takes a couple of hours. Cut chicken thighs into bite size pieces and return to chili to reheat.. May be served with gluten-free crackers or quinoa. Serves six.
