This sound tasty.

Mmmm...gonna try it! I like to add a lot of cilantro to mine as well...if you like cilantro, try it!


HI, I just made this & it's wonderfull Unfortunately, I don't have any green chiles or other peppers on hand. I made a larger batch so I'll add them tomorrow. If this s like regular red chili that get's better the next day, all I can say is wow!!


Hi. I just made this for a bunch of guys. They all enjoyed it and cleaned out a double recipe! I used 4.25 pounds of chicken breasts and almost 2 pounds of jalepeno monteray jack. Thanks for the recipe! (I didn't try the cilantro but that would be a great addition.)


This Recipe is EXCELLENT!!! I made it for my daughters party, and everyone was asking for the recipe. My mom has made it and loves it, and my sister just called for the recipe for a party she's having! Thanks for the hit recipe!!


Made a double batch yesterday - it was a huge success. I added a few quartered potatoes, and some whole (canned) green chiles. Yum.


This was a delicious recipe. I used canned chicken and today I will use roasted chicken from the deli. We really enjoyed it. Thanks for posting this.


Great taste & texture. I used ground chiken to make things easy and used organic low sodium chicken broth. The family loved it! Makes enough for 2 meals.


Made it today for the Superbowl and it's DELICIOUS. I made it exactly as written. Adding the cheese at the end really made it.


This recipe is great! Great blend of flavors! Only thing is that one batch is not enough for 8 at our house. I took it for lunch at work, and the guys are begging me to make a batch for everyone at work. I'll be making a double batch.


This really is the best white chicken chili that I've ever had. It's now on our regular rotation and when I made it, we had guests and they wouldn't stop talking about how good it was. Great Job!!


Hi there... I just made this for dinner today and it was a big hit. Thank you this was a great recipe!!


I made this recipe for my husband and I and like all the others have said, it was super good! It was my first time tasting white chicken chili, but I will make this recipe a staple in my kitchen! Excellent!!!!


This recipe is fantastic. To save time, I bought a roaster chicken that is already cooked at the grocery store. I also added some okra - one of my faves in white chili. Thanks for sharing!!!


I took this to a work chili potluck today-mine was the only empty crock pot!


Very good! I even got my sisters kids to eat it! One thing i like to do with chili is make bread bowls. If you go buy pilsbury biscuits, and shape the dough over a ball of foil and bake them, you have a bread bowl. More fun for kids:)


This is an excellent receipe! Recommend to all who like white chicken chili. Thanks for posting a great one!


I made this last night for my family and they loved it. My husband loved how creamy it was. I did add more cheese to the soup itsself and I added a 1 cup of sour cream into the soup right before I served it.

You might want to use low-sodium chicken broth. It can get a little salty. = )


For those who want to eliminate saltiness You can add 1/2 of a regular white potatoe (Or a whole cut in 1/2 & drop it in while it is a boil.This will absorb the salt, remove after 10-20 min. If you leave it in the soup & it gets cold the salt will be leach back into the pot!


Ooh rotisserie chicken.. good idea. I'll have to try that too.


I added 2 jalapenos to mine, it was great!
