Instructions

Pat chicken dry with paper towels and season with Chimichurri Seasoning, cumin, and Fleur de Sel. Heat Cilantro & Red Onion Infused Olive Oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the chicken and cook until browned about 8 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, remove the chicken and set aside on a clean plate. 

Add the onion, poblano, garlic, jalapeño, and chili powder to the pot, stir to combine, and sauté for 3 minutes. 

Add the broth and  Oregano Infused White Balsamic to the pot and stir to combine with the vegetables. Bring to a simmer and, once simmering, reduce the heat to medium-low. Add the cream cheese to the pot in batches, whisking until melted, smooth, and combined before adding more. Once the cream cheese has been added, add the beans, corn, and chicken to the pot and stir to combine. Cook for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, or until the vegetables are tender and the chicken is cooked. Season to taste with salt and pepper and divide the chili between bowls. Top with cheddar cheese, avocado, cilantro, and scallions. Serve with tortillas and lime wedges on the side.
