New year. New goals. Whether you are someone who is unable to have gluten in your diet due to allergies or someone who is just looking to reduce their gluten intake, this easy to make recipe is for you! You are probably thinking to yourself that is not possible if the dish has beer in it right? WRONG! The brewery we chose to feature for this recipe, Duck Foot Brewing Company uses a natural enzyme to break down the proteins in gluten, making it digestible to most people who are sensitive to gluten; even those with Celiac disease, like their co-founder, Matt.
We used their West Coast-style IPA that is rightly called “The Contender” in the recipe to help add to the bold flavors of this white chicken chili. We decided to pair this dish with their Slow Burn Chili IPA that just won SILVER at the Great American Beer Festival last year in the chili beer category. This beer definitely has a kick to it and leaves your lips tinkling and your throat a little warm, but at the same time is easy drinking. Pairing this beer with the chili helps add an extra kick to it that will be sure to keep you warm during cold nights.

Ingredients

|
- Place the chicken thighs, beans, chilies, onion, garlic, cumin, chili powder, pepper, salt, chicken broth, beer, and coconut milk in a crock pot. Cook on high for 5-6 hours, or until chicken is very tender.
- Remove the chicken and place in a bowl. Lightly shred with a fork.
- Place the arrowroot starch in a small bowl and slowly whisk in the 1/2 C. water to make a smooth, lump-free mixture. Stir the mixture into the chili in the crock pot.
- Add the chicken back into the chili and stir to distribute. Let cook for another 30 minutes. Soup should thicken up.
- Add the cilantro to the soup just before serving and check the seasonings, adding more salt or pepper if desired. If you want the soup to be a little thinner, add more chicken broth or coconut milk until desired consistency is achieved.
- Top with a squeeze of lime juice.
