Step-by-Step Instructions for White Chickpea Chili
  1. Step 1: In a large pot, heat a splash of oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion, bell pepper, and minced garlic, stirring occasionally. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until the onion becomes translucent and fragrant, and the bell pepper softens.
  2. Step 2: Sprinkle in the cumin and paprika, stirring for another minute to release their aromatic flavors.
  3. Step 3: Pour in the vegetable broth, coconut milk, salsa verde, and the chickpeas. Stir everything together until well combined.
  4. Step 4: Bring the chili to a gentle simmer over medium heat, allowing it to bubble softly for about 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  5. Step 5: Before serving, taste and season your White Chickpea Chili with salt and pepper to your liking.

For the best flavor, use fresh ingredients and soak chickpeas overnight if using dry ones. Leftovers taste even better the next day!
