Herbes de Provence is a combination of dried basil, fennel seeds, lavender, marjoram, rosemary, sage, summer savory and thyme (quite aromatic!). You can substitute dried Italian seasoning if desired.
“Bear Paws” are great for shredding meats like pulled pork, but they work just as well on chicken. This chicken chili is a favorite since it has tomatoes in it too, which are not always found in a “white” chili.
