Crock Pot White Chicken Chili ~ Loaded with White Beans, Cheese, Cayenne Pepper and Green Chilies to give it a KICK!
So the story goes like this…
I’ve been meaning to make a White Chicken Chili since about well, 5 years ago. I hang my head in shame. My cousin made it for Christmas one year and I had never had it before and it was simply amazing. I failed to get the recipe and have been toying with the idea of it every since that fateful Christmas.
Yet I was a little bit nervous to say the least. I mean what if it didn’t live up to that soup I had played up in my head for so long? Could I really deal with the dissapoint from it? Would I be crushed if it wasn’t as good? Could I try again if I failed the first time?
You see my trouble. The life of a food blogger is sometimes rough. It can be defeating as you toss out one recipe after another because it’s an epic fail. Then thankfully you’ll get on a roll of successes just when you couldn’t take any more failures or your self-esteem sure couldn’t. Rough isn’t it?
I love the fact that people have an amazing recipe and they’ll share it with me! It cuts way down on my failure rate and my self esteem is definitely way higher so I’m a happier person. So if any of you have some family recipes you want to share hit me up! I’d love to try them!
This yummy White Chicken Chili recipes simmers all day on low in your Crock Pot so you can go have fun or go to work like the rest of us. When you come home you have supper ready! Rock on right? I love that fact that it has the green chilies and cayenne pepper in it to give it a kick! Grab a bowl of this to warm you up on a cold winter night!

Hi, This is Joann again. Can You PLEASE Update this Recipe. Ingredients has one thing and Directions calls for something else. Thanks for your help.
Hi, I have not made this yet. But I do have a question. In the ingredients it calls for Cream Cheese , but then in the directions it say’s Sour Cream. Can you PLEASE tell me which one I am suppose to use? Thanks for any help you can give me. Have a wonderful day.
Hi Joann, the correct ingredient is cream cheese. Where the instructions say sour cream, it is supposed to be cream cheese. Sorry for the confusion, I will get it fixed. Thanks!
So add 8 ounces of cream cheese, not sour cream? It also says to add shredded cheddar. How much should I add? I made this a few years ago and my family loved it, but I can’t remember how much shredded cheese. Thanks!
Yes, it should be 8 oz cream cheese, not sour cream. You can add sour cream as a topping in individual bowls at the end if you like. For the shredded cheese, I would start with 1/2 cup to 1 cup depending on your preference for cheesy soup! Thanks!
Hi there! This recipe talks about adding sour cream in the directions, but it’s not on the ingredients list. Is it optional? What quantity do you add? Thank you!
In the crock pot as I type this, I am hoping it will be as good as it smells! First time ever trying white chili.
Hope you enjoyed it Monica!
This is excellent. I just made it in a pot. It didn’t make much sense to have to add cooked chicken & have all sit in crockpot. Mine cooked up pretty fast & had lots of flavor.
Glad you enjoyed it Missy!
Oh my… this looks fantastic!
