I have made this Chili many times and consider it a family favorite.

I have made this recipe 3 times now. Each time it has been a real hit with my family. I have 3 'adult' kids==2 college agers plus 1 high schooler---each with very different tastes, but this recipe has been well received by all 3,plus my husband and some visiting family. Leftovers warm up well, too, a real plus. I make it pretty much as directed, but added whole kernel corn the last batch and really loved that addition. I also saute some onions and garlic with the chicken at the beginning. I have used both corn and flour tortillas. There is a difference, to be sure, but we like both versions. I do recommend boiling and shredding the chicken before anything else is done. I think the 'dryness' of the previously cooked and shredded chicken will help those who have found the tortillas to be too soft.

I have made this several times now for different occasions. My whole family loves it, which is no small thing! It seems to reheat well if there are leftovers---I say "seems" because my children love it so much they fight over the leftovers and I have never actually had a chance to reheat and eat any for myself. Like other reviewers, I find that doubling the rice works very well for our taste. I also add sauted garlic and onions to the meat. I have used pork sausage(in addtion to the beef) but have found using mild Italian sausage to be the best combo for us. Some reviewers have critized that this is not truly "Dirty Rice"---maybe not, but it doesn't change the fact that it makes for some very good eating!
