Method
- Heat a large pot over medium-high heat with olive oil, then add the chopped onion and diced jalapeño, cooking until the onion softens and becomes slightly translucent.
- Add the minced garlic, dried oregano, and chili powder to the pot, stirring well so the spices become fragrant and evenly coat the vegetables.
- Pour in the chicken bone broth, then add the chicken along with the salt and black pepper, stirring gently to combine everything.
- Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to a steady simmer, cover, and cook until the chicken is fully cooked and tender.
- While the chicken cooks, combine the cornstarch and water in a small bowl, mixing until smooth and free of lumps.
- Remove the cooked chicken from the pot and place it on a plate, then shred it using two forks into bite-sized pieces.
- Return the shredded chicken to the pot, stirring it back into the broth so it is evenly distributed.
- Add the sour cream, shredded cheese, corn, cilantro, and lime juice, stirring until everything is well combined and creamy.
- Stir the cornstarch mixture again, then pour it into the chili, mixing thoroughly to help it thicken evenly.
- Let the chili simmer uncovered, stirring occasionally, until it thickens to your desired consistency.
- Ladle the chili into bowls and add your preferred toppings before serving.
