Since it is wintertime, we are always making soups since they are so warm, comforting, and filling.  This also re-heats so well so it is perfect as leftovers. My favorite way to make this white chicken chili is to throw it together in the morning in the slow cooker.

How to make Slow Cooker White Bean Chicken Chili:

It is as easy as putting in the chicken breast, onion, jalapeno, Mexican spices, and chicken broth and let it cook low and slow for 5-6 hours.  Add green chilies, beans, cilantro, and cream cheese, and heat for 1 hour longer.

If you want to make Quick and Easy White Chicken Chili, you can make it in a pot in 30-40 minutes.  It is as simple as sauteeing the onion and peppers in a little oil until nice and tender.  The Mexican spices and chicken broth are added and then bring it to a simmer.  Add the green chilies, beans, shredded chicken, cilantro, and cream cheese and heat.

    For the White Chicken Chili recipe, it calls for 2 pounds chicken breasts. Is that bone-in chicken breasts or boneless? Can’t wait to try it! Thank you.

    This is without a doubt the best chicken chili! I am bad to follow recipes and typically just make it up as I go along. I followed this recipe for the most part. The only things I changed were that I used hot Mexican chili spice (no Mexican oregano), only 1 tsp salt, added a can of drained diced tomatoes, and did not use the whole 1/2 c cilantro (maybe a 1/4 c) (husband is not a fan of cilantro). I simmered it for a couple of hours just to meld the flavors. AMAZING! Will be making this again and again! Thanks for the recipe!

    This is so good! Do you think it could be frozen? Or would it mess up texture.
