82 Reviews of White Chicken Chili

This was a most delicious dish! I added a can of white corn, and used a packet of McCormick's White Chicken Chili spices, to add more flavor. To cut down in fat, I used low-fat sour cream and omitted the whipping cream...it was absolutely wonderful. Thanks for the recipe!

    I've never tried white chili, but I'm going to try this one. Sounds great. If you are trying to omit the cream and sour cream and want to thicken the chili try reserving some of the beans and mash or puree them. They should add some amount of thickness back to the chili. I'm so glad its fall and I'll be trying this one soon. Thank you.

    This chili was excellent! I used 2 cloves of minced fresh garlic and 1/2 tsp garlic powder. Also, I added one can of creamed corn and one can of diced chilis and tomatoes (hot) instead of the 2 cans of diced green chiles. I added 1 extra can of chicken broth as well. I served it with Fritos corn chips. Thanks Renita!

    This was fabulous! I checked out several white chicken chili recipes before settling on this one. The sour cream and cream are what drew me in and what made it unique from the others. This was so good, my mouth is watering this morning just thinking about it. Like someone else I used ground turkey, out of ease. I substitued 1 of the 4 oz. cans of chilies for jalepenos and that made it ultra spicy- a little too spicy, will have to adjust that next time. I think I will stick with the 2 cans of chilies as written and then taste as I go using more cayenne pepper to spice it up. I also added some cilantro and about a tbl. of lime juice which I recomend, the flavors blended nicely. We served it over fritos and topped it with jack cheese. So yummy! Thank you!!

    Way Yum is certainly a good way to describe the taste of this recipe. I made a double batch for our annual Chili Cookoff at our church tonight and it was a hit. Not a drop left. It was a bit soupy so next time I will cut down on the broth. I got an honorable mention in the contest results and many, many favorable comments from the people. I liked it a LOT and normally, I'm not a chili fan.

    Excellent. I made this while we were camping and everyone loved it. Since I was making this for a crowd I doubled the recipe and only added one can of the diced chili peppers, I didn't want it to be too spicy. I took advise from other reviews and added one packet of McCormick white chile mix and 2 cans of white corn and 2 cans of beans. I used low fat sour cream and fat free half & half. I put everything in my crock pot except the sour cream and half & half. After a nice hike in the mountains, the camper smelled great. My husband and everyone else said this was a keeper.

    WAY yum. It seemed like it was going to be too runny, but as it cooled a bit it thickened up to just the right consitency. Also, we used ground turkey instead and that was a perfect match for this dish. Will definently be making again!

    WE all really liked this chili. I made a few - but slight changes. I used "real" garlic instead of powdered and I added cannelini beans - just one can because I have a "beanaphobic" in my family. I also added a half a teaspoon of cumin - just because I like it. Everything else stayed the same and I served it with shredded Monterey Jack and tortilla chips.Every last bit was eaten. Next time I think I'll add a can of hominy to make up for the bean reduction. Thanks for a wonderful recipe.

    This soup is awesome!!! I pretty much stayed right with the recipe, but did make a few adjustments...First I used a rotissarie chicken from the store because they are convenient and have such good flavor. Also, I added one minced jalopeno and fresh minced garlic when cooking the onion. I also did one can northern beans and one can butter beans. Lastly, I added smoked paprika (about 2 tsp.) and it was wonderful!!!! I used more chicken broth too (just kinda eye balled it). Will make this again and again...thanks!!

    This is my favorite recipe for white chili. The sour cream and whipping cream make it rich and satisfying. I like that I can doctor it up and add other seasonings to switch it up a bit. I add jalepenos for a bit more "bite."
