After trying other white chili recipes, I created my own that full with ground chicken, beans, peppers, and savory herbs, hot-spicy yet sweet, and creamy for a change from tomato-based chili. My partner frequently takes my cooking to work for colleagues to sample, and they said this is not only some great chili with kick, it’s one of the best non-standard chilis they’ve eaten! Thick and robust, great for dinner on a cool evening. Up the ante with tortilla chips or corn muffins as a side–with kernel corn and diced chiles added to the muffin batter.
