Years ago I can still remember having my first bowl of White Chicken Chili and I fell in love. Over time and getting myself into the kitchen to cook I worked on my own recipe. My husband loves this Chili too but when I make and know he is eating I have to omit the corn but other than that this is truly a comfort chili and great for the fall weather.
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this Chicken Chili!

This is the perfect chili for a cool, rainy day or during a pre-game tailgate. It's perfectly seasoned and filled with juicy pieces of chicken. The bits of corn give a pop of sweetness while the jalapenos bring the heat. Everyone has their take on white chicken chili and we really liked Kim's recipe. You'll want to add this to your regular rotation of stews and chili in the cooler weather.

How to Make White Chicken Chili
- Made this today 10-28-12 for my little Momma, Jeanie's Bday. We had chicken chili, salad ( Spicy Crunchy Bacon Pea Salad) and some mini appetizers (Mini Curried Chicken Salad Cups) too. She just loved it. Of course, my Momma doesn't do anything spicy so I had to cut the chilies and peppers for her but the rest of us added them in. YUM
- 10-20-13 Made this chili for an event I had this weekend. I doubled the recipe and this time added the corn and jalapeno's which I just love it that way. It's so filling and flavorful. Many who tasted and had some was their first time to try a White Chili and they really enjoyed it. ----I served it straight with no cheese, sour cream or extras and still delish.
