Best 6 Chili Blanco Recipes

Chili blanco, also known as white chili, is a unique and flavorful dish that offers a lighter and more delicate alternative to traditional red chili. It derives its distinct character from the use of white beans and a creamy broth made with ingredients like chicken or vegetable stock, milk or cream, and a variety of spices. Unlike its red counterpart, chili blanco often features a base of roasted Anaheim or poblano peppers, which add a milder, smoky heat. While sharing some elements with red chili, such as beans, tomatoes, and spices, chili blanco stands out as a delectable variation that delights with its creamy texture and distinctive flavor profile.
