Spicy White Chicken Chili

Are you ready to meet your new favorite chili recipe?

This recipe is infamous in our circle of friends. If we have a party, people ask if were making it before they agree to show up and if were invited to a party, people invite us under the condition that we make it. I've become a master at balancing the Crock Pot on my lap in the car.

Made with tender chicken breasts, buttery white beans, and creamy chicken broth, this healthy comfort food is easy to make and extremely popular for a reason!

This is definitely a HOT and SPICY recipe, coming from Neil and me, who consider ourselves not only fans of spicy food but people with a decent threshold. If you want spicy, but maybe a little less spicy, omit the can of jalapeno peppers. You'll still get the spice, but it wont burn your face off, or leave you with killer heartburn.

Serve with tortilla chips or avocado slices, and your favorite cheese!

A true crowd pleaser just like this Easy 30-minute Buffalo Chicken Chili and Spicy Vegetarian Stout Chili. Be sure to watch our Recipe Index and Facebook page for more recipes!
