To prepare white chili, gather all the preferred ingredients and combine them in a large pot. Bring the pot to a boil and then lower the heat so that the chili can simmer. Simmering will take a couple hours so that the beans can soften and the flavor of the ingredients can be enriched. Additional seasonings can be added as the chili cooks until the desired flavor is reached.

Once the chili is ready, it can be served with grated cheese, salsa, tortilla chips, and other garnishes.
