❤️ White Chicken Chili Seasoning Mix

"I have been making chicken chili for years - but I was using unhealthy premixed seasoning packets! This homemade mix is super simple, healthier, and cheaper. I love that I know that I am putting natural ingredients in my family's food." -Kori

Natural Ingredients

I love that the ingredients used in this recipe are all-natural and are pretty common household spices. The only one that isn't as common is the green chili powder. If you don't have it, you can omit it from the recipe. 👍

Xanthan gum and corn starch are called for in this recipe. Xanthan gum is a common thickener used in low-carb and keto diets, but you can substitute cornstarch.

If you don't want either, omit and remove the lid from the chili. Continue simmering until the liquid is reduced to your desired constancy

Easy to Make

Okay there are a couple of reasons I made this recipe.

One, I am a busy person and love recipes that I can just dump stuff in. I'll often use seasoning mixes to speed my cooking along, but unfortunately, this isn't always the healthiest option.

Two, I can't always find the mix in my local store. I live in a somewhat rural area, maybe that's why?

Three, this is so easy I have no idea why I didn't think of this sooner! LOL 🙂 I mean, I usually have all the ingredients on hand, and it takes less than 5 minutes to whip up a huge batch (I usually quadruple the recipe) and store it.

Healthy

Because the store-bought seasoning packets use corn starch, flour, and sugar, I played around with substitutions until I came up with a sugar-free and cornstarch (carb) free low carb keto-friendly option.

I'm so excited because it literally tastes the same as the original version! Voila! A low carb, gluten-free, sugar-free, keto-friendly recipe was born! 🙂

🧾 Ingredients and Tools

Here are the ingredients and tools you will need to make this recipe:

Ingredients

Full ingredient amounts are listed in the recipe below 🙂

• Oregano
• Onion powder
• Cumin
• Garlic powder
• Chili powder (red)
• Green chili powder - I bought my green chili powder on a trip to New Mexico but you can find it at your local grocery store or on Amazon. If you can't find it, no worries, just omit.
• Kosher Salt
• Pepper
• Cayenne pepper
• Sugar or a sugar substitute - you can easily use a sugar substitute (like granulated monk fruit or stevia) as long as it has a 1:1 ratio and you use the same equivalent as the recipe calls for.
• Thickener - use cornstarch or xanthan gum (xanthan gum is a common thickener use in low carb and keto diets)

Tools

• Small bowl
• Measuring spoons
• Airtight container (if keeping a pre-made stash in your pantry)

🥘 Variations

• Feel free to play around with your seasonings and herbs! There is no hard-fast rule. The best recipe is always adaptable and tastes best to YOU. 🙂
• I use this seasoning mix in my Slow Cooker Keto Chicken Chili Recipe. This seasoning mix combined with the 8oz green chilies that that recipe calls for has some kick. If you are unsure how spicy your recipe will be start with 1/4 tsp of cayenne pepper then add more later to taste.
• Don't want to use xanthan gum or cornstarch? That's totally fine! Add seasoning to your chili recipe, simmer according to the recipe, remove lid and cook down the liquid until the chili is the desired consistency you are looking for.

❓ Common Questions

What is in white chicken chili seasoning?

This seasoning contains powdered red peppers, green chili pepper, and cayenne pepper, cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, salt, pepper, a thickening agent, and sometimes other preservatives.

How do I store dry seasoning mix?

You can store dry seasoning mix in an air-tight container for up to 4 months. Making your own seasoning is a healthy and cheaper option to seasoning your recipes quickly!

How long will this seasoning keep?

If stored in an air-tight container and used the freshest dried seasoning, you can store this seasoning for up to 4 months in an air-tight storage container.

Is this seasoning mix keto?

The store-bought white chicken chili seasoning is not the best seasoning to use on a keto diet, as they contain 6 grams of carbs per serving and use sugar in the mix as well, as cornstarch and flour is a thickener.

Our homemade copycat seasoning uses all keto-friendly ingredients - sugar substitute, xanthan gum - and has only 2.2 net carbs.
