What To Serve With Chicken Chili
Complement your Chicken Chili with a side of cornbread or a handful of tortilla chips. For a lighter touch, a simple green salad works wonders. Don’t forget the toppings: a dollop of sour cream, a sprinkle of grated cheddar, and some chopped onions elevate the dish to the next level.
How To Store Chicken Chili
In The Fridge:
Transfer the cooled Chicken Chili into an airtight container and store it in the fridge for up to 3-4 days.
In The Freezer:
For longer storage, portion the cooled chili into freezer-safe bags or containers. Make sure to leave some space at the top for expansion. Seal tightly and store in the freezer for up to 2-3 months.
How To Reheat Chicken Chili
To reheat, if stored in the fridge, simply transfer the chili into a pot and warm over medium heat until hot, stirring occasionally. If frozen, it’s best to thaw the chili in the fridge overnight before reheating. Once thawed, follow the same reheating steps as you would for refrigerated chili.
