  1. Curt REVIEW:

    I'm guessing recipe was wrong should of been 1 tsp not 1 tablespoon of white pepper. The others reviews that said it was good couldn't have used that much pepper.

  2. A Busy Wife of a Picky Husband REVIEW:

    My husband and I loved this recipe! I added a habanero pepper for a little spice and will probably add two next time. I might also add some other beans for variety. It was delicious!!!

  3. annimal REVIEW:

    I made this (with canned beans) along with a tomato chili for our superbowl party. Everyone loved it! Getting ready to make it again tonight, this time substituting some leftover turkey meat for the chicken.

  4. Duhnecie REVIEW:

    Outstanding! I have never had white chili before and this recipe is AAAA+++++!

  5. Bethmarie99 REVIEW:

    I made this recipe for my boyfriend who kept requesting a white chili and it was delicious! I did take the advice of other posters and did not add the clove. For my sake I also did not add the jalapeno and only added 4 oz of the green chilies because I am not able to eat spicy food. I also took an immersion blender to it at the end to give it a little bit of creaminess but still left some beans whole. It turned out awesome and it is definitely my go-to recipe for white chili! I highly recommend this recipe.

  6. KelRen REVIEW:

    This recipe was pretty good, except the cloves part. DO NOT ADD CLOVES. It was a weird combinationa and all I could taste and smell were the cloves.

  7. D REVIEW:

    I have always been a "Red" chili person. This recipe changed all that. This Chili is OFF THE SCALE! Thanks for sharing

  8. Folsom REVIEW:

    The worst white chicken chili I ever made. First 7 cups of chicken broth is way too much. It makes this a soup not a chili, as it will never cook down and thicken. Also, I am not sure if it is the cloves, but this had the wierdest smell and taste. Now I followed the recipe exactly, and I had to throw it out 'cause no one would eat more than a bite. -F-

  9. Ace REVIEW:

    This recipe as written is AWESOME! It's the first success I have had with dry beans. I followed the directions but in addition, too time two days before my event to prep everything. I just had to dump at approximate times while I set up. I've been asked for the recipe repeatedly and have even converted a child to eating beans who previously wouldn't touch them. Wonderful recipe, easy, great complexity of flavor. Thank you

  10. TryingNewThings REVIEW:

    Although I didn't use the dried beans, the recipe as a whole was AWESOME. I used it for a fund raiser at work and several people really enjoyed the chili. Thanks for submitting such a great recipe Haley!
