This was excellent. I added some black beans to it too. I decreased the amount of chili powder as I buy mine at an Indian market and it is very strong. Even so it was VERY spicy hot so I toned it down with some sour cream. This completely changed the color which is why I added the black beans.

Loved this recipe. Made a very large turkey and had a lot left over. After a couple of days my husband was complaining - no more turkey. So decided to try something different and he loved it! Followed the recipe and some of the prior comments. Added white beans, minced garlic and brown sugar. Did not add the hot sauce. Cooked the vegetables, tomatoes, spices & chicken broth (add broth as needed so not too thin for about 1/2 hr, added chopped turkey and simmered about another 10 minutes.

I make white chicken chili all the time. Made this today and it's all gone. It fed a family of 6! Very tasty!
