This was wonderful! I used previous advice and started with half the cumin and cayenne pepper. I nixed the jalapenos (too hot for me!). After tasting I added a dash more of cumin and it was perfect!

I too toned down the spices because I have kids and they loved it. I used four cans of cannellini beans--pureed two in the blender with the chicken broth before adding it to the crock pot. It was the perfect thick consistency. I will make it again and again.

It's the Best! my kids usually do NOT try no dishes but they loved this. We now make this recipe monthly. I like mine thicker and usually add blended cheeses which I melt on top and top with sour cream. Yummy on cold days.

If I could give this recipe more than five stars I would. I think my husband would even give it 10 stars. I made this recipe exactly as instructed. The finished project is just magnificent. It is definitely a spicy dish, but light and packed with flavor. For the chicken, I used leftover rotisserie chicken from the market, cut up, and for the beans I used great northern beans. Thank you Cha Cha!

We love this recipe so much! We like some heat but I reduce the cayenne to 1/2 tsp and it's fantastic!

This is not bad, but it's nothing special. It's too spicy to taste anything other than hotness, but it's pretty clear that it wouldn't taste like much of anything if you toned down the spice.

Based on other reviews I was prepared to alter the recipes as follows: cut out jalapeno peppers, double the green chile peppers, substitute 1 can of chicken broth with cream of chicken soup, and use 4 cans of beans w/ one can mashed. However, as I was making the chili I was worried about it becoming too soupy. I drained the cans of beans before adding them. After I added two cans, I thought it look like enough beans so that is all I used. I have five young children so I cut the cayenne pepper by 1/2. The thickness came out perfect...not too soupy, and it wasn't too spicy either. Will definately make again. Thanks for a great recipe

This is a really good recipe. Had a lot of heat and I only added a very small bit of jalapeno peppers! Careful with the peppers!!

GREAT recipe! I doubled all spices and instead of red pepper, I added 1tsp cayenne pepper. Garnished with sour cream and cheese, it was unbelievable!

Awesome way to use up leftover roasted chicken! My modifications: 5 cloves garlic; 1/2 fresh diced jalapeno instead of the can; 1/2 tsp cayenne; 2 cans of beans (plenty); added two fresh pablano peppers and a couple shakes of hot pepper flakes. I didn't measure the liquid, but I used water + 3 tsp of chicken bullion, and it was still too watery. Mine turned out mildly spicy, just about perfect, tho I think next time I'll use the whole jalepeno.

LOVED this with a few modifications: After reading reviews, I only used about 1/2 the jalapenos, and instead of the green chile peppers, I used Herndez salsa verde (about 1/2 cup) because I usually have it on hand. I also only used 2 cans of beans (and fork-mashed about 1/2 of the first can). SO SO SO good.

Absolutely delicious! I used the basic recipe except for a few simple adaptations - I used 4 cans of White Northern Beans (pureed one for thickness) and added a bit more chicken. Other than that, I followed the recipe exactly. Yes, it is very spicy, but that's the way we like it!

It was okay but I still have left overs nobody wanted to eat. I have another white chili recipe I prefer much more than this one. Thank you for the recipe.

This is delicious! I have a 2, 4 and 6 year old and they loved it. Because of the boys I left out the jalapenos and cayenne, so this can be made for mild palates and still taste great. Added a can of black beans and topped with sour cream and homemade tortilla chip strips. A fall favorite!

Very good after reviewing some of the recommendations. From the original photo it looks way too thin so I also pureed one can of the white beans. I also added a tsp. of Cipolte Chili Seasoning. I used the 50% low sodium chicken broth too. Oh, the fiesta corn was awesome added to this! ;) 2 cans of broth is perfect amount. I did not add the Jalapenos because I was afraid it would be a tad to spicy but I personally would love that. My kids thought it was too spicy but young kids can't usually tolerate heat but I thought it was mild. Next batch I will add the Jalapenos and add a full tsp. of Cayenne Pepper. I only used 1/2 tsp. for this one. It wasn't hot at all to me! The texture is very good. Not too thin or too thick. Perfect...IF you follow some of the recommendations. The taste is very good and the spices are perfect. A must try! Just add/subtract ingredients to your personal liking. ;)
