White Chicken Chili

A few days ago, I was on the phone with my daughter and she commented to me that she had the best Chicken Chili at a friends house for dinner.  I immediately started thinking, I have a great White Chicken Chili recipe, but where is it?  I have so many recipes floating around my kitchen, I searched and finally found it.  The problem with my recipes is I write them as I prepare then, not in alpha or categories, someday I will sort them into a better system! This recipe is perfect when time is short, I start this soup on the stove top and finish in the oven.  We prefer our chili on the mild side, if you like more heat, step up the amount of cumin, chili powder and you can even add a pinch or two of cayenne.
