      Hi Laura, this is without a doubt the absolutely best chicken chili recipe I've ever had the privilege to prepare; bar none. This recipe takes chicken and the word "chili" to a new level. The flavors are exquisite and inviting. Thanks so much for providing a relatively easy yet decadent recipe to cheer the taste buds during this holiday season. Tom
