Oh delish! I hadn't used ground chicken in chili before, but I sure will from now on! This had the perfect "heat" for my family and we all loved it...something that doesn't happen often. I didn't drain the tomatoes and even added about 1/2 cup water to get the consistency I wanted. I also added all veggies right into the chicken mixture rather than cook separately. Simmered for about 45 minutes and fed the crowd! MERP'd for My 3 Chefs. Thanks Jen!
