White Chicken Chili

Hope everyone enjoys their date night tonight. I know I am really looking forward to it. For tomorrow I am planning on making White Chicken Chili. Soups are some of the easiest things to make, and chili is no different.

What You Need

1 package White Chili Seasoning Mix
3-5 Chicken breasts
2 cans white beans (I like them drained and rinsed so that there is less sugar in it and more true flavor)
4-8 c Chicken broth (depending on how thick you want the soup)
1 small onion (Diced)
1-2 small cans diced green chilis
Any additional veggies like celery, carrots, parsnips, etc! (In my opinion the more veggies the better!)
To make the flavor really pop try squeezing in the juice of 1 lime before serving

Directions

Place all ingredients in the crock-pot (make sure the chicken is not cooked when added, this helps to flavor the soup, and makes the chicken more juicy). Let simmer on low all day. If you would like to thicken the sauce then mix 2 T or so of cornstarch with enough water to make it runny when mixed, add to the soup 30-60 minutes before serving, and turn crock-pot to high. Serve with cheese, crackers, and/or homemade bread.
