TEQUILA WHITE CHICKEN CHILI



Tequila White Chicken Chili image

I made this for our Halloween party and everyone commented on how great the chicken in it was. The secret is marinating it in tequilla and grilling it. My teenaged son and his friend enjoyed it (another surprised look from the friend when he said "it was good." It makes a lot of marinade, so I used the rest for fajitas!

TEQUILA CHICKEN CHILI



Tequila Chicken Chili image

DH and I made this chili from Normal Kolpas' "The Chili Cookbook" and really enjoyed it. We served it over basmati rice. While the recipe calls for masa harina, I really didnt think the chili needed thickening (it was plenty thick) and in the last chili recipe I included it in, I thought it detracted from the flavor a little bit. Therefore, I omitted it in this one.

CREAMY WHITE CHILI



Creamy White Chili image

I got the best white chili recipe from my sister-in-law, who made a big batch and served a crowd one night. It was a hit. It's easy and quick, which is helpful since I'm a college student. In all my years of 4-H cooking, I've never had another dish get so many compliments. -Laura Brewer, Lafayette, Indiana
