Green Chicken Chili is a nice smokey, lightly spicy chili that will not only warm your tongue but will warm your belly. This recipe has a small amount of fresh jalapeno, green chilies, and smoked paprika to not only warm your tongue but your belly too. Indeed, these incredible flavors meld well together. Moreover, the beans give a creamy texture to this chili. 
In all honesty, I am a wimp when it comes to spice, however, I do like a little heat. Frankly, I enjoy the slight tingle on my tongue. One of the best things about this chili is it’s perfect for the family on the go. Indeed, this recipe can be made on the stove or follow the directions below and add to your slow cooker allowing this soup to cook all day while allowing the flavors to bring greater depth to the flavor. If made on the stovetop this soup will still have incredible flavor.
What a wonderful world we live in to be able to experience an enormously wide array of flavors and tastes. I undoubtedly am very grateful that there are a number of different ways to put together similar items and create a totally different flavor profile. Such a wonderful time to be alive as nowadays anyone can get almost any kind of cuisine from anywhere in the world. Hence, there is also fusion foods that years ago would not have existed.
In fact, when I was a kid the only kind of choice in cuisine that I recall was Italian and Chinese. However, today anyone can have Greek, Japanese, Thai, Korean, Honduran, etc.
