Creamy white chicken chili topped with cilantro

This soup is perfect for a cold snowy day, but is great for mild temperatures as well. It's creamy and fresh, and fills the soul! It's simple to make, and the flavor packs a punch!

You will need cooked chicken for this recipe. I recommend cooking frozen chicken thighs in the pressure cooker! It's simple and delicious!

If you'd rather use fresh chicken thighs or chicken breasts, just cut the chicken into 1-inch cubes and saute with an onion in a large cast iron dutch oven. Either way works great! You could also use a rotisserie chicken if you're in a rush.

let's get cooking!

Rachelle's notes ♡

I like to use Real salt and Real Garlic pepper, but of course you can use table salt, pepper and a little bit of garlic powder.

If you don't have a fresh lime, 1-2 tablespoons of lime juice works great!
