I’m confused as to why you say to add the milk at the beginning. I knew I shouldn’t do that, because it would curdle, but against my instincts I followed the recipe and added it with the other ingredients thinking there was something special about this recipe. Nope, five hours later I come to shred the chicken and find curds and whey in my chili. 🙁

I’m sorry you experienced that— my thought is you may be seeing the fat from the chicken in the chili? That’s been my experience in the past if there was a little extra fat on the chicken breast. Once you shred the chicken it should all mix in together and it’s quite tasty. I don’t think the milk curdled since it’s cooked low and slow.
What can I use instead of milk? Dairy intolerant ☹️
I would suggest coconut milk 🙂
This sounds so cozy and delicious! Love that it can be made in the slow cooker, too. So yummy!
This looks so cozy and warming. Love that it’s all done in the slow cooker too!
This soup looks so dang flavorful. And I love how versatile it is for different diets and add-ins!
Lately we can’t get enough soup or chili and your rendition of this white chili looks phenomenal. I would never have though to garnish with avocado but it’s a perfect pairing. Thanks for sharing this beautiful dish!

It took me so long in my adult life to find chili and now I just can’t stop eating it! I still have ventured into the land of white chili though so this one tops my must make list for sure!

I love slow cooker recipes especially chili. Looks delicious.

I love the sound of this, I make chili a lot and despite stumbling over recipes for ‘white’ chili all over the place have never made or eaten one.
hope you give it a try. it’s one that my mom always made growing up.
It’s always nice to add ingredients to the slow cooker and walk away! I love all the flavors you used in this soup – I hope it chased away the sniffles 🙂
