White Chicken Chili

White Chicken Chili is very easy to make. Personally, I like to make this recipe on a stovetop but I can understand that sometimes we don’t have that extra time to prepare the recipe, and so comes the slow cooker that makes it easier, just throw all the ingredients in it and it will be ready ahead of time. But this recipe also works beautifully for the stovetop. Below I have included both the variants of White Chicken Chili so that you can choose accordingly.

White bean chicken chili is one of my favorite chili recipes and the flavors in it are so delicious and completely out of this world. It has everything in it to make it more delicious like onion, garlic, green chilies, and cumin. These few ingredients are completely a game changer.

White chicken chili is usually made with heavy cream to make it creamy and smooth but to keep it simpler, healthier and lower in calories you can use reduced fat cream cheese and the shredded cheese on top and finally you can have it with some slices of healthy avocado, baked potatoes, a few jalapeno slices, and some tortilla chips.

How to Freeze White chicken chili

Make sure to use an airtight container. Firstly, prepare the recipe and let it cool before you place them on the container and then after it is completely cool put them on your refrigerator or freezer.

Now the most important part, if you are planning to serve it tomorrow then remove from freezer and place in the refrigerator and let it defrost overnight before planning to serve.

And if you want to use a slow cooker then you can cook it on low throughout the day so that chili gets warm or you can also use a microwave or a large stockpot for reheating process.
