Creamy White Chicken Chili -Dinner Easy Recipe

Creamy White Chicken Chili has been on my list of recipes to make for years. With the new year, I have been trying very hard to stick to a meal plan, so this was one of the first I put on my plan to make. I am so glad I did because it was a huge hit and is so comforting for the winter months!

I picked up a chicken at Aldi and I cooked it up in my dutch oven. I love dutch oven cooking. I made some more fresh chicken broth and used the chicken for this Creamy White Chicken Chili recipe and still had plenty of chicken left for salads.

After I cooked the chicken and it was cool enough to handle, I shredded it and added 4 cups back into the dutch oven, along with 2 cups of reserved chicken broth.

Next, we added chili powder, cumin, a can of corn and 2 cans of white beans. If you like heat, you could also add chopped green chilis and some cayenne powder
