I got this wonderful recipe from my sister-in-law, who made a big batch and served a crowd one night. It was a hit. Plus, it's easy and quick, which is helpful since I'm a college student. In all my years of 4-H cooking, I've never had another dish get so many compliments. —Laura Brewer, Lafayette, Indiana

will do this again--except next time I will use more beans. very tasty. just a trifle thin for us. mushrooms sound like a good idea too.

So delicious! The only thing I changed, was I added a can of corn and I only used 1 can of green chilies.

Very good, simple & quick white chili recipe. I added 1/2 tsp of cinnamon.

My husband and I love this. Instead of cayenne and green chilis, I use a can of Rotel. It comes out great.

I made it for our staff lunch. It was really good. Thanks for the recipe.

This one was a hit with all the family. I used evaporated milk, instead of heavy cream and didn't add sour cream during cooking. Everyone added their own sour cream at the table.

This is my first time to make a white chili. This is wonderful. It is so easy to make. I used an already roasted chicken from the deli and also added a can of mushrooms. Everything else I kept the same.I made some Honey Beer Bread to go with it.. What and awesome dinner.. The wine was good too.

This was definitely a hit. I didn't use the Heavy cream at all, I only used the sour cream, and I added a can of mushrooms. Also, I have to wonder if it is coming out different for people that live in different places. I live in Southern New Mexico, we are in the desert and elevated like 3500 ft. It wasn't thin for me, nice and creamy and DE-LISH!!

We were disappointed after all of the great reviews for this recipe. The only changes made were to add 1 tsp minced garlic and use 33% less sodium chicken broth. This was just okay for us. Perhaps we prefer beef chili instead!

There's another White Chicken Chili from Taste of Home that I usually make that is done in the crockpot and starts with a jar of alfredo sauce. I decided to make this one because I wanted something that I could make quickly that didn't have to cook all day. This tasted similar and we really liked it because it was quick. I think I will double next time for more leftovers.
