1 c. chopped onion
1/2 c. chopped bell pepper
2 tbsp. butter
2 c. chopped cooked chicken or turkey
4 oz. can green chili peppers, rinsed, seeded, and chopped

In large saucepan, cook onion and green pepper in the 2 tablespoons of butter till tender. Combine in a bowl with chopped chicken and green chili peppers; set aside. In same saucepan, melt the 3 tablespoons butter. Blend in flour, coriander, and salt. Stir in chicken broth all at once; cook and stir until thickened and bubbly. Remove from heat; stir in the sour cream and 1/2 cup of cheese. Stir 1/2 cup of sauce into the chicken.
