We’re halfway through our month of Spanish inspired recipes and I must say, I am lovinggg this series!

Would you believe that when I was a kid, I actually hated Mexican food?

I’m so glad I grew out of that funk because I cannot imagine a life without it now!

Earlier this week I posted a recipe for an easy adobo chicken and today I’m showing you how to repurpose those leftovers in an amazing keto chicken chili!

I love recipes where the leftovers can be reused in a totally separate but equally yummy meal.

It saves time in the kitchen since half of your meal is already prepared and it eliminates food waste! Double whammy!

Plus, it’s even better when both of those meals are ready in under 30 minutes!

Making Your Own Adobo Chicken Chili At Home

If you’ve already made a batch of my adobo chicken, then this keto chicken chili comes together really fast and really easily.

Don’t fret if you haven’t made the chicken that you need for this chili. It only takes 15 minutes to whip it up in your Instant Pot!

You can simmer this chili on the stove while you whip up a batch of jalapeño cornbread.

If you want to make this even quicker, you may use your Instant Pot.

Or, throw everything in the slow cooker before you leave for the day and have a hearty meal ready when you get home.

See the notes section of the recipe card for those instructions!

No matter which way you choose to make it, this adobo chicken chili is a comforting bowl of soup that rivals any you’d order at your local Mexican spot!

How To Serve Your Chili

If you’re feeling the fiesta vibes, add some frozen cauliflower rice to the pot while your soup simmers. Muy delicioso!

As for topping your bowls of keto chicken chili, I find that these items compliment the flavors best:

avocado
Cotija cheese
cilantro
a squeeze of lime or a lime wedge
sour cream or Mexican crema
thinly sliced green onion
