  "account": "I made Ina Garten's chicken chili, and it was easy, healthy, and so comforting. Garten created the recipe while operating her Barefoot Contessa store in the Hamptons. She replaced beef with chicken, making it even more popular than the original. Garten served traditional chili to her customers for 20 years before tweaking the recipe and swapping the beef for chicken. The Barefoot Contessa store is now closed, but Garten's chicken chili recipe endures and is perfect for chilly weather. Garten's chicken chili recipe calls for chicken breasts, tomatoes, onions, bell peppers, basil, olive oil, garlic, salt, chili powder, cumin, red pepper flakes, and cayenne pepper. I doubled Garten's recommended spices to create a more flavorful chili. After prepping the ingredients, I cooked the onions in olive oil for 15 minutes, then added the garlic and cooked for an additional minute. Next, I added the bell peppers, chili powder, cumin, red pepper flakes, and cayenne pepper, cooking for one minute. I then added the tomatoes, crushed them by hand, and threw in the basil. I brought the chili to a boil and simmered it for 30 minutes, allowing the flavors to develop. While the chili simmered, I roasted the chicken breasts seasoned with olive oil, salt, and pepper. The chicken was slightly cooled before I separated the meat from the bone and chopped it into ¾-inch chunks. I added the chicken to the chili and continued simmering it uncovered for 20 minutes. Finally, I prepared toppings like chopped green onions, corn chips, and grated cheddar cheese, and served the hearty, comforting chicken chili.",
