Equipment

  • Crockpot

Ingredients

Chili Base

  • 1 pound Chicken Breast or thighs for more flavor
  • 2 cups White Beans canned, such as cannellini
  • 1 medium Onion yellow or white preferred
  • 3 cloves Garlic fresh is best

Creaminess

  • 8 ounces Cream Cheese or Greek yogurt for lighter version
  • 4 cups Vegetable Broth or chicken broth

  • 1 can Green Chiles mild or spicy

Garnishing

  • 1/4 cup Fresh Cilantro omit if not a fan

Instructions

Preparation

  • Begin by chopping your onion and mincing the garlic. This fragrant duo will enhance the chili's base, making your kitchen feel cozy.
  • In the crockpot, add the chicken breast, white beans, onion, garlic, and green chiles. Pour in the vegetable broth, and sprinkle cumin and chili powder over everything to infuse great flavor.
  • Cover your crockpot and set it to cook on low for about 6-8 hours.
  • Near the last 30 minutes, stir in the cream cheese, allowing it to melt and create that velvety texture.
  • Once done, give it a good stir, then dish it out and top with fresh cilantro and lime wedges for that bright finish.

Notes

Serve with crusty bread or tortilla chips for added crunch. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
