How to make zero white chicken chili
How to make white bean chicken chili thicker
There are a couple of ways to make this skinny white bean chicken chili thicker – first do NOT drain the beans – that liquid is thick – so it helps with the chili. You can also mix 1 Tbsp water and 1 Tbsp cornstarch in a bowl and make a slurry – then add that to your chili. I don’t think you’ll need to do that with my chili it was just right!
Can chili be frozen?
This super easy weight watchers chicken chili can definitely be frozen! I had a big bowl for dinner – then I packed up the rest in these freezer safe glass dishes. Now I’ve got lunches whenever I need them!
What to serve with chicken chili
I wanted to stick with the healthy route since I was having skinny white chicken chili and toasted a 100 calorie english muffin! But if you’re want to indulge a little – try my garlic cheese toast! Or if you want more veggies – the Olive Garden Salad is always a hit!
