Ingredients

> 1 rotisserie chicken
> 1 yellow onion
> 3 tbsp olive oil
> 1 (4 oz) can chopped green chiles, drained
> 4 cups low sodium chicken broth
> 1 cup Quaker quick grits
> 2 (15 oz) cans cannellini beans, rinsed and drained

Garnishes:

> 2 limes
> 1 red onion

Steps

1
Remove the meat from the chicken and roughly shred. Set aside. Dice the onion. Heat the olive oil in a large pot, add the onion, and cook over medium heat for about 4 min., or until translucent. Add the chopped chiles and cook for 3 min., stirring regularly. Add the chicken and broth and bring to a simmer. Meanwhile, prepare grits according to package directions.
2
Add the beans and the corn to the chili and simmer for about 10 min., or until mixture thickens slightly. Top grits with the shredded Colby-Jack cheese. Slice the limes into wedges, dice the red onion, and chop the cilantro.
3
Let guests serve themselves, topping their chili and grits with lime wedges, chopped onion, cilantro, sour cream, and Cheddar as desired.
