This article features a recipe for white jackfruit chili, a high-protein vegan dinner option that uses cannellini beans, young jackfruit, corn, tomatoes, green chiles, and vegan mozzarella. The jackfruit serves as a chicken substitute, providing a shredded and tender texture to the chili, while the cannellini beans add protein, creaminess, and substance. The recipe is quick to prepare, taking only 10 minutes of prep time and about 25 minutes to cook, making it a convenient option for a filling meal that can serve a group or provide leftovers.
The dish is flavored with a mix of spices and thickened with flour, rice milk, and vegetable broth, resulting in a creamy and flavorful chili with plenty of spice and texture. The recipe, which serves eight, can be served hot with accompaniments such as tortilla chips, dinner rolls, fries, or vegan sour cream, with a sprinkle of parsley for a fresh finish before serving.
