This was good and easy to make. I followed the recipe as written. I used crushed tomotoes for the can of tomatoes. Next time I make this I would omit the kidney beans as I didn't care for them much in this recipe. We also thought it could have used more chili powder. This was a good start though to what we thought could be a great chicken chili.
