This White Bean Chicken Chili Skillet is a comforting, healthy weeknight dinner. It's a fun twist on your classic white chili. It has the perfect hint of spice, is so creamy, and seasoned to perfection. You also get all of your carbs, protein, and veggies in one dish! You don't even need to prepare any sides if you don't want to. I love one pan meals because it means less dishes and more time with my family.
