Join the discussionSo I’m a bit confused by this recipe. A) Neither the ingredient list nor the instructions reference chickpeas, so why is this called chickpea chili?? B) This recipe calls for 135oz of great northern canned beans… which is almost 8.5lbs of beans. Surely this is a typo???
Can you clarify either of these points?
Laura, thanks for bringing this to our attention. We had this all wrong! We’ve taken chickpea out of the title and fixed the canned beans amount.
I wish they’d answered you! I have the same question!
The next line after title still says chickpeas.
The irresistible flavor of jalapeño poppers will warm you up in this adaptation of classic chicken chili prepared with chickpeas
Good catch!
The recipe has been updated appropriately 🙂 thanks!
Could this recipe be doubled and fit in a 6 quart Instant Pot?
It would be a tight fight and may be too much for a 6 quart IP. If you give it a try, please let us know! If you go to try and it’s too much -you can always freeze the other half of it for later 😉
