This tasted so good to me. I have had something real similar to this at a lodge we go to in southern Missouri. I did as you suggested and served this hot over tortilla chips. I only used 1 finely chopped jalapeno and it was spicy but did not hurt us. I used about 1 1/2 cups of cheese because we like it so much. Thanks for a great hearty recipe. -
I made this for dinner last night. My family loved it. The seasonings were wonderful. I only used small amount of chopped jalapeno pepper and it was just right. Thanks for the great recipe. We will have this often. -
Very good - SO immediately asked for this to be put on the recipes-to-make-again list. :-) I only used 1/2 of the chicken broth though, as I wanted a drier stew-type thingy this time, and was out of jalapenos (shocking, they're a staple in this house) so threw in some red pepper flakes instead. Thank you for sharing!

I made this in my crockpot, at first it was a little thin so I thickened with cornstarch and water. It was SO good! Garnished with a little fresh squeeze of lime, cilantro, pepper jack cheese, advocado and sour cream. It was an absolute HIT! -
This was awesome. I made it in a crock pot and used pepper jack cheese instead of monterey.

This was a hit at our house. I used left over chicken and instead of the can of green chili peppers, i used one serrano pepper - wow, very spicy, and very tasty! Note, i forgot to add the cheese, but it was still very good (and lower cal.)
