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!
Creamy White Chicken Chili – Recipe by Momma Lew
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.
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
