White Chicken Chili

This is one of my favorite meals to make for company. It has a slight kick, and it's so good! Normally white chili will include green chilies, but I'm not a fan of that flavor. So the kick from this chili comes from the cayenne pepper, which makes it so easy to turn the heat up or down according to your family's taste. And it's great served over white rice with lime tortilla chips and my Ultimate Corn Bread! This is always a big hit, so you can double or triple the recipe accordingly. Enjoy!
