Creamy Chicken Popper Chili

June 23, 2014 by Jodie 1 Comment

Creamy Chicken Popper Chili

I must admit, I tried this chicken chili thinking my husband would love it. And he did.

But I’m the one that wanted to make it the second and third time in a month. It has quickly become one of my favorite soups.

It is easy to put together, it’s got big chunks of chicken with lots of creamy goodness and just a kick of spicy.

Don’t be worried about the jalapeños. The spice is really not that much. It all depends on how many of the seeds you leave in.

And speaking of jalapeño seeds. I’m going to say what nobody said to me the first time I dealt with hot peppers: wear gloves! My fingers were burning for several hours after my first experience cleaning out the seeds of a couple jalapeños. So, just do yourself a favor and wear gloves.

Also, make this soup. Because it’s amazing. And it goes great with these bread bowls.
