This quick chili recipe is very hearty and chock full of flavor. It literally takes about 20 minutes until it’s on the table. I highly recommend this as you can use virtually any type of bird meat in it. ![moss-Creamy Poblano and Grouse Chili Recipe](https://resources.mossberg.com/hs-fs/hubfs/moss-Creamy%20Poblano%20and%20Grouse%20Chili%20Recipe.png?width=960&height=480&name=moss-Creamy%20Poblano%20and%20Grouse%20Chili%20Recipe.png) I chose grouse for this recipe, but you can use anything from pheasant to duck to goose to crane. It can also be spiced up depending on personal preference. | ![moss-Creamy Poblano and Grouse Chili Hunt](https://resources.mossberg.com/hs-fs/hubfs/moss-Creamy%20Poblano%20and%20Grouse%20Chili%20Hunt.png?width=300&height=300&name=moss-Creamy%20Poblano%20and%20Grouse%20Chili%20Hunt.png) | | --- | | ![moss-Creamy Poblano and Grouse Chili Bowl square](https://resources.mossberg.com/hs-fs/hubfs/moss-Creamy%20Poblano%20and%20Grouse%20Chili%20Bowl%20square.png?width=300&height=300&name=moss-Creamy%20Poblano%20and%20Grouse%20Chili%20Bowl%20square.png) | ## INGREDIENTS: - 2 (15 oz) cans Great Northern Beans - 1 lb wild bird breasts - Olive Oil (or whatever you have!) - 1 chopped red onion - 2 chopped poblano (or Anaheim) peppers - 5 cloves (or 2 tbsp) minced garlic - 1 ½ tsp cumin - Salt & pepper to taste - 8 oz chopped green chiles - 3 cups chicken broth - 4 oz reduced fat cream cheese - Diced green onions - Chopped Cilantro - Red Pepper Flakes (if desired) ## DIRECTIONS: 1.
