Chef’s Tips
To make sure your chicken is cooked through, look for an internal temperature reading of 82° C for a whole chicken and 74° C for ground poultry, chicken pieces & cuts.
– For a spicier chili, serve with your favourite hot sauce or add cayenne pepper to taste. For a milder chili, substitute a bell pepper or poblano pepper for jalapeño pepper.
– Use cannellini, great northern or navy beans in the chili.
