Ingredients:

  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 can (15 oz) white beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 can (4 oz) diced green chilies
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • Fresh cilantro, for garnish
  • Shredded cheese, for serving (optional)

Instructions:

  1. Start by placing the boneless, skinless chicken breasts at the bottom of the slow cooker. This will guarantee they cook evenly and stay moist throughout the cooking process.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the white beans, diced green chilies, diced onion, minced garlic, chicken broth, ground cumin, chili powder, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to combine all the ingredients.
  3. Pour the bean and spice mixture over the chicken in the slow cooker, making sure it’s evenly distributed. Cover the slow cooker with its lid and set it to cook on low for 6 hours.
  4. After 6 hours, remove the chicken breasts from the slow cooker and shred them using two forks. Return the shredded chicken to the slow cooker, and stir in the heavy cream until well combined. Allow it to warm through for an additional 15-20 minutes.
  5. Once heated, ladle the chili into bowls and garnish with fresh cilantro and shredded cheese, if desired. Serve with tortilla chips or warm bread on the side for a complete meal.

Extra Tips: For added depth of flavor, consider sautéing the onions and garlic in a skillet before adding them to the slow cooker. This will enhance their sweetness and bring out their natural flavors.

If you prefer a thicker chili, you can mash some of the white beans before adding them to the slow cooker or use an immersion blender to slightly puree the chili before serving. Enjoy your creamy white chicken chili with your favorite toppings for a satisfying meal!
