Roasted Poblano White Chicken Chili

Roasted poblano peppers add a smoky kick of spice to this delicious White Chili. Oven-roasted boneless skinless chicken breasts with white beans in a spicy chicken broth, enriched with a little sour cream at the end give this chili its white color. Thick and hearty, my Roasted Poblano White Chicken Chili is great cold-weather comfort food.
