100% would make again

I was looking for a new recipe for chicken when I discovered a dish I thought my husband might like. After making a few changes and additions to fit out preferences, I had this zesty chili simmering on the stovetop. It was great! Leftovers store well in the freezer. —Kayleen Grew Essexville, Michigan

This was such a nice change from the norm - and gobbled right up and my guest asking to take some home. Easy to make and rave reviews!
