Cha Cha's White Chicken Chili
(This was out of this world!!! I did cut back on the spice a bit, but it was fabulous! DH loved it! Great spicy flavor. Another words, it doesn't hurt, but tastes great! I did thicken it a little. I also added in the juice from the canned beans. This is a keeper. DH has already asked for me to make so he can take it to work!) Cha Cha's White Chicken Chili Delicious white bean chili. Cha Cha says: 'It's kinda spicy, so watch out!' Substitute more jalapenos for the green chiles if you're scared! Use more chicken and cheese as desired. Prep Time: approx. 10 Minutes.
