Simmer Beans and Spices
Start by combining the corn, hominy, pinto beans, and kidney beans in a large saucepan over medium heat. Let everything come to a gentle boil. Once it’s bubbling, stir in the salsa, chili powder, cumin, and water, then bring it back up to a boil. Let it simmer for about 15 minutes so the flavors can meld together. Finally, stir in the cooked chicken just to warm it through, and your chili is ready to enjoy.
