White Chicken Chili

Submitted by MsSally

"This is another family favorite. This uses bone in chicken thighs, but you can used boneless thighs if you want to. I like the flavor of the dark meat in this chilli, but you can use white meat if you want. From Betty Crocker."

Made for Recipe Swap #18 Aus/NZ. This defininitely is comfort food! I did make a few changes but nothing that would change the outcome of the recipe. I had a turkey breast in my freezer that needed to be used so I cooked it ahead of time in my crockpot because I also wanted some cut up turkey for my lunch. I also cooked this on top of the stove because I'm gone too long during the day to really use my crock pot with good results. I used 12 ounces of cut up turkey and 3 cups of chicken broth instead of a 14 oz can and everything else was the same. The family enjoyed it and gave it "thumbs up" Another soup to add to my repetoire! Thanks for posting this Ms Sally!

A delicious comforting meal. Not having the canned beans, I used 1/2 pound dried that were soaked overnight and increased the chicken broth to 3 cups. The lime juice and cilantro really add to the flavor. The red pepper sauce was more like 1/2 teaspoon and I tossed in a couple of pinches crushed red pepper flakes for extra heat.
