This Keto White Chicken Chili is made with just 5 simple ingredients for an easy and comforting low-carb soup.

white chicken chili in a black bowl topped with diced avocado

Can you call a soup “chili” if it doesn’t have beans? We’re going to go with a yes. This Keto White Chicken Chili is one of Lauren’s favorite meals, I swear I think she could eat it for every meal for a week but by then she would be tired of it and we’d never have it again. That’s usually how that goes. We used to roast chicken thighs with lemons and jalapenos multiple times a week for at least a year, now I don’t think we’ve had them in at least two. Anyways, this Keto White Chicken Chili is indeed delicious, even without the beans.

It’s easy too, just a few simple ingredients and spices from your pantry and you’re well on your way to a nourishing meal the entire family will love. Here’s what you’ll need:

  • bone broth – the quality kind, the kind that jiggles like jello when it’s cold. That’s how you know it’s packed with gut-healing collagen.

  • chicken – again, opt for organic when possible not only for your health’s sake but for the chicken’s as well.

  • onion – the perfect aromatic for this chili.

  • salsa verde – a simply clean store-bought salsa works great here since one ingredient can add both the tomatillo as well as some lime, jalapenos, and spices. Plus a jar of salsa will always be cheaper than purchasing all of the ingredients to make your own.

  • oil + spices – simple pantry items you should already have on hand.

For toppings, a simple avocado adds a nice boost of fat as well as fiber and potassium. If you’re not worried about keeping this recipe to 5 ingredients or less sliced jalapenos, and some cilantro also makes great toppings. Here are a few reading topics about the benefits of bone broth and my favorite, avocados:

  • An Avocado a Day Keeps the Cardiologist Away
  • Avocados and their Effects on Metabolic Syndrome
  • The Healing Power of Bone Broth

One of our favorite salsas has always been the taqueria-style jalapeño sauce that’s sometimes served with street-style tacos at your local Mexican restaurant. It’s richer than a salsa fresca or pico de gallo and is super creamy from the cooked jalapeños. We love the richness of it and it goes so well with so many things.

These Cauliflower Walnut Taco Cups were originally These Cauliflower Walnut Taco Cups were originally featured in our cookbook and now that Cast Iron Keto is focused on plant-based + low-carb recipes, we thought it deserved a permanent place on the website.⁠
⁠
If you have our cookbook, have you tried this recipe out of the Meatless Monday chapter? If not, we hope you do, even if you’re more omnivore than plant-based. Why? Because they are simply delicious!⁠
⁠
The combination of the crumbled walnuts, tender cauliflower, and smoky chipotle peppers in adobo sauce create a filling that, while it resembles ground beef, is much more layered in flavors.⁠
⁠
The toppings are completely up to you, these are just our go-to’s. Some type of creamy sauce would be delicious too. Maybe a bit of dairy-free (or regular) sour cream mixed with a bit of extra chipotle in adobo? Yes, that sounds just perfect. You can grab the recipe link in our bio!⁠
