Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 yellow onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 24 oz chicken broth (low sodium)
  • 2 (15 oz) cans Great Northern beans, drained and rinsed
  • 2 (4 oz) cans diced green chiles (1 hot, 1 mild)
  • 1 (15 oz) can whole kernel corn, drained
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 3/4 tsp oregano
  • 1/2 tsp chili powder
  • 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
  • Small handful fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 4 oz reduced-fat cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup half-and-half

Instructions

  1. Add chicken breasts, spices (salt, pepper, cumin, oregano, chili powder, and cayenne pepper) to the bottom of the slow cooker.
  2. Add diced onion, minced garlic, Great Northern beans, green chiles, corn, chicken broth, and cilantro. Stir well.
  3. Cover and cook on LOW for 480 minutes or on HIGH for 240 minutes.
  4. Once cooked, remove chicken to a large mixing bowl and shred it. Return the shredded chicken to the slow cooker.
  5. Add cream cheese and half-and-half, stir well, and cover. Cook on HIGH for an additional 15 minutes, or until chili is creamy and slightly thickened.
  6. For a smooth blend of cream cheese, add softened cream cheese to a small mixing bowl, add ladles of chili, whisk until smooth, then stir back into the slow cooker.
  7. Stir well and serve with desired toppings such as sliced jalapenos, sliced avocados, sour cream, minced cilantro, tortilla strips, and shredded cheese.

Notes

Consider using turkey instead of chicken for a leaner option. Substitute quinoa or lentils for a gluten-free choice.
