I was craving a tortilla soup, and this definatly isn't what I was craving:-( However my husband liked it and wants me to make it again.

I used 32 ounces of chicken broth and more chicken. I also added about 1/2 cup of water. The soup definitely had more liquid, but it tasted great. Next time, I will use less cayenne pepper. This soup is delicious!

I won a chili cook off with this recipe! I put in about 1/2 of the cayenne the recipe calls for. Great alternative to regular chili!

this did not turn out like a traditional chili. it was more like a soup. way too much broth.

Very good! Might only put 1 teaspoon of cayenne. The chicken was nice and tender! Never thought white beans could taste this good ;)

A huge hit with everyone in my family, even the ones who aren't big chili fans. It is one of my fall and winter standbys.
