“Creamy white chicken chili recipe that’s easy and full of flavor! Truly award-winning, crowd-pleasing chili!!”
I’ve done white chicken chili on my blog before but this is how I make it now! It’s much better this way people! So creamy, cheesy and flavorful! If you’ve never made creamy white chicken chili before then now is the time!!
I always make a double batch and freeze the rest. It surely comes in handy on those breezy days when you just want a cozy bowl of something comforting for lunch or dinner.
Making white chicken chili is a pretty easy process. It’s one of those one pot deals which makes it great to serve to a crowd. This is usually what I make for Super Bowl and it ALWAYS disappears so fast!
The heavy cream gives the broth an amazing creaminess, paired up with those warm spices, Mexican blend cheeses, flavorful chicken thighs, onions, garlic…have mercy it’s such a beautiful thing!
I don’t normally fool with adding toppings other than cheese, but if you want to you could add some diced avocado, sour cream, crushed unsalted tortilla chips and even diced tomatoes would be delish!!
Watch me make this white chicken chili from start to finish!

i will rate the recipe 5 star because it is very delicious and i tried and found it very tast this is review after cooking thank you so much for yummy recipe you are sharing everyday.
The next time, I think I’ll use rotisserie chicken. I didn’t find the fresh chicken thighs very flavorful. Otherwise, after all the ingredients are added, the chili was pretty good. I made cornbread with mine.
