I made a white chicken chili yesterday that just might be my favorite chili now!

I had never tried a white bean chili before, and now I’m wondering “What was I waiting for?”

The white beans mixed with vegetable and chicken broth, chunks of chicken, oregano, diced green chilis and garlic……

Wow.  The perfect flavor combination.

My three little ones all loved it too.  I think the flavor reminded them a bit of a chicken noodle soup.

Ingredients needed for white chicken chili

Don’t forget the cumin and oregano. They complement the beans and chicken so well.

Scoop of deliciousness!

White Bean Chicken Chili – SO good.

I would suggest making this chili as soon as possible.  Your family will thank you. 🙂

Its the perfect “warm your tummy” chili for a cool and crisp Fall day.  I forgot to mention above how much I love the finely chopped onions in this recipe as well.

I found this recipe from Aimee at ItsOverflowing.com, and I’m so glad I did!
