A few weeks ago I had to cook for the poker players at the VFW. I was going to make White Chicken Chili, and, it needed to feed 20...well, turns out I added a few ingredients not in the recipe (I know you are shocked), and it wasn't white anymore! Read more ! LOL But, the guys devoured every last drop, and have requested it again. Now, I started the night before, and I wanted to roast the chicken. No reason you couldn't poach it in the same seasonings, I just prefer the roasted. (not included in prep or cook time) This is probably double what I will make next time. I never measure, it's all a guesstimate.
