Easiest & Best White Chicken Chili
Chili was always a favorite in our home and this version is no exception! It is the ultimate hearty meal that can feed a crowd. Chili is the perfect meal to come inside to after being out in the cold and the perfect addition to a game day feast.
This white chili recipe is a regular in our home . It gets it’s full flavor from the addition of green chilis, as well as the cumin and cayenne.
It’s 35 minute cook time makes it a family-friendly recipe. It is so easy and doesn’t require laborious time spent over the stove. This hearty chili is not only comforting but a healthy addition for regular rotation.
While my family loves this dish, it’s my secret just how easy it is. They think I have slaved all day in the kitchen.
It also makes quite a bit and if you have leftovers, which we rarely do, it is even more delicious after the flavors have been allowed to meld overnight. I have, on occasion, made a double batch to ensure I do have enough throughout the week. I have even frozen batches for unexpected events, like company, and no time to cook.

Tips For White Chicken Chili
One of my favorite tips for this is to use leftover, or even rotisserie chicken to make it easier and faster.
Be careful when purchasing green chilis. They do come in different heat levels so be sure to grab the right one for your family.
Toppings take your bowl to the next level. Jalapenos, sour cream, avocado, shredded cheese, cilantro and tortilla strips are what we like to use.
