Description
Years ago, i started experimenting with a chicken variety of my mom's old basic chili recipe. I never, ever make a chili the same way – that's the beauty of it. Just use what you have in your pantry or what you are craving….there's really no way you can go wrong. Every time, i make chili with chicken it is different. For my family & friends who think there is an actual "melanie's chicken chili recipe", here's my attempt to finally publish it with approximate ingredients for you.
Feel free to mix it up anyway you please – but my biggest rule is please don't use canned diced chilies in that acidic gross tasting preservative juice – yeah you know what i'm talking about and gross!
