Directions

  1. Combine chicken, water, bell pepper, celery, onion, garlic, seasoned salt, and oregano in a pot. Bring to a boil, continue to boil until chicken is no longer pink in the center and juices run clear, 15 to 20 minutes.

  2. Remove from heat, shred chicken with 2 forks, and return to the pot. Add beans, salsa, and chile peppers, and return to a boil. Reduce heat to low and add cream cheese and Monterey Jack cheese. Do not allow to boil once cheeses are added, if boiling you can remove from the heat entirely. Stir until melted.

Recipe Note

This cream cheese chicken chili is sinfully cheesy! We serve it in bread bowls. Christmas Eve favorite! Serve with pickled jalapenos and carrots.
