Chicken Chili

My friend Stewart LOVES my Chicken Chili. My hubs thinks it's pretty awesome as well. I started making this delicious soup when we went to a Christmas Eve party and someone had made a pot of it. We instantly were hooked. Now I will tell you that this soup is H-O-T! Spicy hot that is, so if you don't like it spicy, you may not want to make this.
