This was a hugh hit with the family, they polished it off! Since we are not butter users (I used oil instead of butter to sauté the garlic and onion, I substituted oil. I never thought I would ever make a Paula Dean recipe since we stay away from white flour, butter, and sugar. This was an awesome recipe, I will definitely make it again.

FANTASTIC RECIPE! I altered the recipe some and would not change anything that I did except that I wish that I had made more! I used left-over Thanksgiving turkey, 5 cups of homemade turkey stock, 3 cans of white beans, 2 (7.5-oz. cans of diced chilies, 1 tablespoon of garlic, 1 onion, 1/2 a poblano, 1/2 a jalepeno, and 1/2 a bunch of cilantro; I served it with white corn tortilla chips and a spicy red beer. It smelled wonderful while it was cooking and tasted even better--everybody loved it. Another reviewer suggested using less liquid if you use canned beans, which I agree with if you are looking for true chili consistency. We did not mind that it was a little soupy because the liquid was so tasty! Also, another reviewer mentioned that the video says to use 1 garlic clove, rather than 1 tbls, but I am glad that I used 1 tbls. Everybody agreed that the spice level was just right. This recipe is definitely one that I will keep and use again and again and again.

I just put everything together and sneaked a taste. I think it's great. I also think it's really nice that since there isn't any salt to speak of in the recipe, everyone can salt it as they would like. I wanted to add that I'm not a very good cook, and when it said 1 Tbsp minced garlic, I assumed it was the seasoning "minced garlic." I went to the recipe and watched the video and found that it was "garlic clove, minced." For people like me who aren't terribly cooking savvy, I have found this to be a problem. Just wanted to let you know. Thanks for the really good recipe!

Great recipe...easy and delicious. Using canned beans and rotisserie chicken will make IT SALTY......people. It is always best to make it from scratch even if it takes more time. Salt is always a preference and that is a giveme.

This was the best soup! I used white canneloni beans also known as White Kidney Beans and canned chiles. The taste was fabulous. I did think it was a little salty but I added water to dilute it. I used a store bought rotisserie chicken to save time and added it to the beans. It only took about 30 minutes because everything was already prepared. Great recipe Paula! My guests loved it!

Made it today in my crock pot - cooked for about 8 hours or so and it was very good, but needed quite a bit of salt, which the recipe doesn't call for....will definitely make it again.

I think this dish had a nice flavor but a little salty. This is actually the first Paula recipe that I couldn't give a 5 star. I even went with the low sodium chicken stock and it was still salty. I probably will not cook this one again, but as always it was fun giving it a try:

Great soup/chili. I put it the crockpot for 10 hours. I left out the cilantro by accident. I don't think it made a difference. After 8 hours it was looking more soup like than chili. I spooned a cup of soup into my food processor to puree it. I poured that back into the chili. It gave it a little more body. As a garnish, I spooned a bit of cream cheese and a sprig of green onion. So delicious!
