6. Serve warm, garnished with fresh cilantro or avocado if desired.

Pro Tips for Making the Recipe

Here are some of my favorite tips to ensure your White Chili Chicken Recipe turns out perfectly every time:

• For a spicier kick, add some diced jalapeños or a dash of hot sauce.
• If you’re short on time, you can use frozen chicken breasts—just increase the cooking time slightly.
• Feel free to swap out the Monterey Jack cheese for your favorite cheese, like cheddar or pepper jack, for a different flavor profile.
• To make it even creamier, add a bit more heavy cream or a dollop of sour cream when serving.
