Notes

Note: Chicken is considered safe to eat when it reaches an internal temperature of 165℉. Use a meat thermometer to check the temperature of your chicken chili if you want to confirm when your chicken is safe to eat.

If you prefer to keep it even lazier, purchase chili seasoning that is ready to go. Substitute ¾ cup of prepared chili seasoning for the recipe above.
