It’s soup season, YAY! There are a trillion reasons why I love soup so much. From the comforting aspect of it, to it being a great source of nourishment and warmth, soups are generally easy to make and can be quite inexpensive, and the list goes on! I made this White Chicken Chili as a slight variation of my favorite chili.
When it comes to soups I mostly crave the ones that can replace a whole entire meal. As much as I love Butternut Squash Soup, I often find myself hungry soon after I eat it. On the other hand, Beef/ Turkey Chili or even this Black Bean Mushroom Soup are soooo filling and makes my belly happy all the way until my next meal 🙂

That’s when I decided to make a slight variation of my favorite (Chili). This White Chicken Chili recipe is a bit similar to the Instant Pot Mexican Chicken Soup except that I am using dried beans this time.
I found that there was an overload of soup recipes using canned beans out there, and not so much using dried beans so I went for it because I love homemade cooked beans and I just happen to have some in hand 🙂
which type of beans to use for the white chicken chili recipe
Navy, great northern and cannellini beans are used almost interchangeably in a number of soups, stews, purees, ragouts, dips and other bean dishes. For this recipe I used 2 cups of unsoaked navy beans.
I love the simplicity of this recipe. All you need to do is toss in all the ingredients, set it and forget it! It’s really that simple and the result is nothing but a deliciously fulfilling white chicken chili recipe. The chicken is so moist from the broth and your can pull into shreds. The beans are cooked to perfection and the broth is so flavorful with a fun kick to it!
