I have a handful of recipes on this site that I actually make over and over again because we love them so much. I make my 5 indigent honey butter beer bread at least once a month. And more like once a week in the fall. And in the soup department, the only two recipes I make on repeat are my white chicken chili and my chipotle corn chowder. We just love them so much. I make the corn chowder every single summer and fall. It’s that one summer soup you have to make every season. It’s the perfect chowder. And my white chili? Well, that really is one of my family’s all-time favorite recipes. I make it multiple times throughout the fall and winter. We love it. And you all, we really love this chili chowder. I took both recipes and made them into one to create the absolute best white chicken chili. I’m obsessed with the recipe and I already know I’ll be making it over and over again throughout the fall. It’s delicious and easy to prepare, so we have to love that!
Details
Step 1: crisp up the bacon Crisp up the bacon in a soup pot. I love to dice mine super small to make homemade bacon bits. They’re so yummy on top of the chili chowder. You can’t skip these! Pull the bacon out and save for topping the chili. Step 2: cook the chicken To the pot, add in the onion and garlic. Let those cook a bit, then add in the potatoes, corn, and chicken. Season that all up with cumin, smoked paprika, and chili powder. Pour over the broth and let the chicken simmer until it’s cooked throughout and shreds easily. This only takes about 15 minutes. Step 3: purée the soup Now pull that chicken out and shred it. Before you add the chicken back to the soup, purée some of the soup to make it very creamy. I love to leave in a few pieces of corn, then purée the rest. Step 4: finish the soup Once the soup is creamy, you can add the chicken back. Mix in the green peppers, the milk, salsa verde, and some cheddar cheese. Let the broth simmer until it’s thickened up, becomes very creamy, and the cheese has melted. At this point, the soup will be smelling so DELICIOUS. Step 5: the toppings The toppings are the real secret here. Most chili is delicious, but what makes a chili recipe over the top good are really yummy toppings. So you have to do them all! Simple as can be, but every spoonful is so delicious. Think a little spicy, a touch creamy, filled with chicken, peppers, cheese, and all those toppings.
