Made this Sat and I was amazed. I threw all of this in a crock pot and cooked on low for about 8 hours then shredded the chicken breasts and it was sooo very good!!! I had never tried a white chili before so I didnt know what to expect but this will definitly be made again. Only difference was instead of the tomatillo's I threw in 3/4 a jar of Salsa verde and topped it off with sour cream and cheese. Hubby wasnt keen on trying it said it looked weird but tasted great!!! Perfect kick on spices...

This is just ok, it's similar to a chicken tortilla soup recipe I have, but no where near as good. The coriander seed ruined it for me, and otherwise the chili didn't have much flavor. Can't believe this recipe is rated so well.

Even using a more spirited and complexly flavored salsa verde rather than basic canned tomatillos didn’t elevate this higher than “just ok.” It pretty much tasted simply like chicken, tomatoes and cumin. Didn’t have the full-bodied depth of flavor I expected. Surprisingly, however, Hubs, who made it clear after I made it that he is no fan of white chicken chili, liked it better than he thought he would. This was improved with a dollop of sour cream and some fresh cilantro upon serving. Oh…and by the way, its initial downfall in my view is that it is seriously lacking in eye appeal, once again, much inproved with garnish. Following day update: Hubs and I had this for lunch today and we agree it was much better! An overnight stint in the fridge obviously gave all the flavors a chance to get to know each other and blend happily! Also, stirring enough sour cream in to make it all nice and creamy really makes it better too. There was such a difference between last night and today that I am compelled to raise my rating from three to four stars. Final note: for best flavor, prepare in advance.

I followed the recipe exactly except for: -I used fresh tomatillos instead of canned -2 cans of white beans instead of one (one can butter beans, one can northern beans) -I used meat from a rotisserie chicken from the grocery store -garnished with "scoop" tortilla chips, sour cream, and limes It was amazing! I will definitely make this again.

Found this while looking for something quick to make. Used part of a store cooked chicken. Used a can of diced tomatoes and a can of diced tomatoes with jalepenos (don't know correct spelling) since I didn't have chiles. I do not have coriander seed so made without. Also canned corn in place of the ears. I thought it was great. Served with a nice crusty bread. Next time I will top with the cheddar cheese I think! Try this!

Big substitution but still great. In my supermarket, I had trouble finding canned tomatillos. I have looked in two stores and cannot find them. Not knowing exactly what tomatillos are like, I decided to experiment and replace with a jar of medium salsa. The chili is very good with this change. I wish I could find and try the tomatillos. Also, I was not sure if white beans are white kidney beans or great northern beans. Not sure if that makes much of a difference. I would make this recipe again and hope to try it with the tomatillos someday.
