Made this exactly as directed. Our new favorite chili!
Sarah Long
Won my company chili cook off with this recipe, changed a couple things from other comments suggestions. Added only half the andouille sausage and the other half regular smoked sausage. Added 1 teaspoon of Creole seasoning instead of the 2nd adding of the chili powder and a whole can of tomato sauce to give it some more liquid. Might try and add chicken broth instead of the can of sauce next time. Thanks for the recipe.

Left out the green pepper and added some chopped jalapeno. Server with jalapeno corn bread
Aaron Murray
It was fast and easy, but I didn’t feel like it was all that flavorful…
Jody Clayton
I made a few minor changes after reading reviews. I cut the onions a little and green pepper (nothing substantial), added a little cracked pepper and used smoked paprika. I also ground boneless, skinless chicken thighs rather than buy it already ground. I shared with two families and they both emailed a request for recipe.
Glen Wilkinson
I followed the recipe and the household loved it. I did top it with cheddar cheese and sour cream
Thomas Berry
I only used andouille sausage and added pinto beans. Also halved the Chile powder and still plenty spicy for my fam! Delicious,
Kimberly Warren
Delicious! I used smoked paprika and 1 tsp creole seasoning, and cut the onion to 1 1/2 c. Perfectly spicy and flavorful without over doing it. Wonderful change for a chili.
Melissa Miller
This a very good recipe! I would call this a gumbo, rather than chili.
Samantha Baldwin
I added an extra teaspoon of chili powder. My Husband really enjoyed it. He liked it because it was spicy. I will keep it in the favored rotation.
Sabrina Frank
Everyone loved it, I substituted the Ro*tel for a homemade mixture that had fewer tomatoes but more green chilies in them (since we have picky eaters) and it still came out fantastic.
Taylor Johnson
I substituted alligator for the chicken and a smidgen of Tony Chachere’s for a little added creole flavor and it was magnificent!
Kenneth Grant
Did recipe just as it was written and felt it was excellent.
William Nelson
I needed a recipe to use leftover jambalaya ingredients and this was perfect. I used both red and green bell peppers. I also didn’t have a can of crushed tomatoes and used 2 instead of 1 cans of Hot Rotel and a 14.5 oz can of diced tomatoes. didn’t have black beans so I used kidney beans. didn’t have ground chicken but had thighs so I cooked them and shredded it. also threw in 2 home grown chilies. SUPER hot and super delicious.

I served it in a spaghetti squash with melted mozzarella cheese.
Michelle Terry
I made this tonight and we wanted something a little different from regular chili. This was amazing. Everyone loved it. I did add some extra crystal hot sauce and a can of creole cream black beans. But everything else we followed the recipe. Next time I may add diced jalapeños. That’s just our taste. But this was delicious. Everyone wanted the recipe!
Eddie Mcknight
Really good chili! Quick and super easy to make. I did add fresh cracked pepper, extra salt, sugar and a few dashes of hot sauce. Will make this again.
Stacy Jones
I made it, and loved it. I followed the recipe as written, and then added heat (Creole Seasoning and Cayenne Pepper). I’ll be making this again.
Melvin Navarro
I used chicken andouille sausage from Trader Joe’s, and a red pepper vs. green, plus I used red kidney beans (preference). Made it for a get together and everyone loved it. Served it with sides of sour cream and shredded cheese.
Catherine George
Very good! Wanted it a bit more spicy, so I added about a teaspoon of creole seasoning. Not very creole-esk, but this is amazing with feta topper! Will make again! Thank you for a great recipe Hunts!
Taylor Lynch
Very good chili. My family loved it. The only feedback is there is a whole lot of onion. I like it and my family was so/so. They really like crushed tomatoes and overall it was so easy to make. I did have to almost triple the amount of salt though. I’d also add sliced jalapeno next time.
