I made this chili for a party and it was a huge success. Everyone loved it! I especially liked the fact that it's not too spicy.

This chili was just okay. I found it to be a bit bland and the chicken was dry. I think I'll stick to my usual chili recipe.

I've made this chili a few times now and it's always a hit. It's so easy to make and the ingredients are all things I usually have on hand. The chili is also very versatile. I've served it with everything from cornbread to rice to pasta.

This chicken chili is a winner! I made it for my family last night and they loved it. The flavors are so rich and complex, and the chicken is so tender. I will definitely be making this again.
