Sauté onion, garlic and jalapeno peppers with oil in a small frying pan.
In a large soup pot, combine saut?ed vegetables with remaining ingredients except chicken. Bring to a boil.
Reduce heat to low. Cover pot and simmer for 40 minutes (or until barley is tender), stirring occasionally.
Add cubed chicken and cook an additional 10 minutes.
If chili is too thick, add additional water to reach desired consistency. Chili peaks in flavor 24-48 hours after preparation.
