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

I make this quite often and every time I do, even folks (like my mother) who swear they don't like chicken chili, love it. I think it is absolutely perfect, the only change I make is using fresh garlic and toasting and grinding my own cumin seeds. Love Love Love this.

I love this recipe, although one time I made the mistake of adding jalapenos (cans were virtually identical) instead of the chilies which made it way too hot for my taste, but the rest of the group loves spicy food so it ended up working out! I have made it several times since then and everyone loves it!

didn't like it - too creamy, too rich - i didn't feel good after having it. sour cream & whipping cream is overkill. would've been better with just whipping cream.

Outstanding! I made this and took the leftovers to work...everyone asked for the recipe and a couple of people went home and made it that night! I did make a couple of small changes. I used fresh minced garlic instead of garlic powder and because I didn't have any heavy cream I substituted a couple of tablespoons of cream cheese. This was soooooo good! Can't wait to make it again. Thank you for this recipe.

This is the same recipe my father always made for me. Although, he always used just 1 4oz can of green chilies... but the people in my house weren't very good with hot food. 8oz gives enough heat that you can feel it, but it's not too overwhelming. Friends and family always love it!

Being from a state where Beef is what's for dinner, my initial reaction to this recipe was less than excitement, but the reviews convinced me to give it a try. We really liked it a lot. I had to thicken it up a little with some cornstarch to suit my chili tastes. Next time I make it, I will add a vegetable like cabbage or corn to increase the textural diversity but overall this is a really good chili and I will make it again.

I found this recipe September 2010. It's December 19th 2010 and I'm making it for the 3rd time. The first time I made it my mom had some and loved it and has made it probably 6 times since she tried it. My wife whom doesn't really care for chili loves it. It's really one of those things that sounds strange in your head. . Chili with chicken? Hrm.. I dunno. Just try it. It makes you nervous to try it, because it seems odd, but once you try it, it's awesome! No one in my family are huge onion people, so I always get a small onion and probably only use 3/4 of it, and I chop them up really tiny. This way the onions are not overpowering, but I think it would be missing something without them, so I wouldn't leave them out.

Reviewed on Dec. 07, 2010 by Jessica2783

I cut the recipe in half, but forgot to cut the spices in half. Because of that- this had a LOT of bite!! Also used white kidney beans as we can't get great northern beans where I live. Next time, when I make it properly, I think I will still cut back on the cumin and cayenne pepper.

I didn't have the beans so I made it without & it was more like a soup. It was delicious. I will definitely make this again. And again and again. :)

We thought this chili was absolutely fantastic. My husband said he would take this to his next chili cook off at work. Although the chili was great it was a bit too spicy for the younger ones in my family, but to be fair they really don't eat anything with any spiciness at all. we will make this again and again.

I made this for a chili cookoff at my church and won First place. Of course I add some of my own flair. Watkins Mexican Soup Base. WOW does that make a difference.

I use this recipe as is and love it. My friend adds bacon but I think it takes over and ruins the flavor. This is a big hit throughout my entire extended family.

This recipe is so wonderful! Everyone that tastes it wants the recipe. I always buy a package of shredded romano and parmesan cheese to sprinkle over each serving! It makes it taste even better!!!

Absolutely AWESOME! I've been making this since I first saw it in the magazine years ago. I've sometimes used pinto beans instead of white beans to save money, and adjusted the heat level depending on who would be eating it, but I always have people beg for the recipe!

My family loves this! I've altered it only a bit. Instead of heavy cream I just use regular milk because I always have it on hand. It tastes the same. Great recipe!

This is my husband's favorite chili recipe. I made it for my church's pot luck luncheon and everyone raved about how great it tasted.

This is a fantastic recipe. I make double batches of it and freeze in seal-a-meal bags for hunting/fishing trips.

This sounds really good.  Could this be cooked in a crock pot?

This is sooooo good.  I had been looking for a recipe similar to the White Chicken Chili that I love to eat at my favorite little restaurant.  This is really close and so easy.  Thanks for sharing.
