Salsa Verde Chicken Chili is incredibly simple and adaptable. Reduce the amount of broth, thicken it, and serve with scoops of tortilla, or use it as enchilada filling. Use deli rotisserie chicken and cook it on the stovetop if you need to make something quickly. Adjust it to your personal preference. Put sour cream on top however you prepare it.

Delish! No changes
I followed the recipe and my pie came out very green in color (just in time for St. Patties Day). It was sweet but a little too limey. Need to practice more, but I think with a different recipe.
Poured the mix into two empty cottage cheese containers and froze. Makes the best, creamy ice cream…ever!
Aawesome!! And very easy to make. My husband loves it and always want it now as a lite treat.
I made this for Christmas. My mom loves lime. I made a few adjustments after reading the reviews. Mine turned out great and was gobbled up. I did fine tune the recipe a little. I used sugar free lime jello and used 12 ounces of made crystal light lemonade. I also used sugar free cool whip. Also used 2 pkgs cream cheese. Cool liquid before adding to cream cheese, blend with electric mixer, add cool whip and fold. I only used 3/4 of the cool whip. Texture was great and stayed firm. Best to refrigerate overnight, If you like tangy it is great.
I followed the comments of others. I cooled it down first before adding the cream cheese and whipped topping. I also used lime aid and a graham wafer crust instead. It turned out great, but quite tart. Family loved it.
It would have been nice if the instructions would have told you to cool the gelatin lemonade mixture first, then blend in the cream cheese , then fold in the cool whip…… if you follow the instructions as written this pie will never set up!!!
Meh. My husband liked it a lot, and it was pretty good, but I’m unlikely to make it again.
Very easy and quick to put together, but it takes a while to make while you wait for things to cool (I made my own graham cracker crust that had to cool before adding the filling. Wait to fold in the whipped topping until the heated jello mixture has cooled to the touch. Wait for the filling to set.).
this came out very good.. it was a little too sweet for me but my parents, bf, and gram all loved it.. i had enough filling to make two pies but then again i was using the store bought premade crusts.. i used tofutti cream cheese and truwhip for the whipped topping as my mom is lactose intolerant and i wanted her to have some too.. bf is already talking about me making this again.. ty for the recipe
kids and i loved it, husband said too strong lime taste so next time i would lessen the lemonade and maybe add a package of cream cheese and top with more whip cream
I added my cream cheese before it was cool and cool whip after and it turned out perfectly!
The flavour was excellent, the pie was super simple to make. The only thing was my cream cheese went lumpy, I’ll use my immersion blender to smooth it out next time. Also I didn’t have frozen whipped topping so I used the stuff in a package, I thought I might have problems but it set perfectly.
Yes, I put the filling in small glasses and whip cream on top..
This was a nice flavor but make sure you let everything cool before adding the cream cheese and whipped topping.
I was quite pleased with how this turned out. I did read the reviews prior to making this and I’m happy to say that I did. When I added the cream cheese into the boiling mixture it began to form into little clumps so I quickly attacked them with my immersion blender to smooth them out. I did let the mix cool before adding the whipped topping and it blended well. I use a graham cracker crust and limeade for the pie. I did freeze the pie and it turned out perfect. The first bite will be a little tart but you’ll be going back for more.
I waited till the mixture cooled before adding the whipped cream and I also used the whipped cream cheese in the mixture and it turned out fantastic! I also substituted the lemonade for the lime ade and I put it on top of an already cooled cheese cake that I made earlier in the day and put it in the freezer to set and everyone said that it was amazing.
I haven’t tried making this yet but I think what I would try, given other people’s comments and experience with it not setting up: bring the juice, water and gelatin to a boil, then cool that until it is firm. Once the gelatin mixture is firm, then mix in the cream cheese, followed with folding in the whipped topping. I also think I might make it in a graham cracker or cookie crust instead of the traditional pie shell. (Even though I haven’t tried it yet, I’m rating it a 4-star for simplicity.) I’ll let you know what happens.
I cooled the jello mix before adding the cool whip. After a couple of hours in fridge, it was still soupy. Also too tart for us. I’m putting in freezer to see if it’s better tomorrow. But am afraid I’ll end up throwing out.
This recipe sure left out some steps. You have to cool the jello/limeade mix before adding the cream cheese. I would actually say to use your mixer to whip the softened cream cheese, then gradually add the jello/limeade. I would also leave out at least 4 oz of the limeade concentrate. I’m so mad that I wasted the ingredients. I’m actually going to try to take the filling out and mix in another pkg of cream cheese so that I can eat it, I don’t want to throw it away.
I thought that this pie was very tasty but the texture was not what I was hoping for. If you like the whipped yogurt that is Key Lime flavor you’ll like this pie. I used limeade, and the juice from 2 freshly squeezed limes and a grahm cracker crust. Good taste and light texture.
