Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 (15 ounce) can cannellini beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1 (15 ounce) can Great Northern beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1 (4 ounce) can diced green chilies, undrained
  • 1 (10 ounce) can mild diced green chilies, undrained
  • 1 (4 ounce) can mild diced green chilies, undrained (Use two different heat levels for depth)
  • 1 (15 ounce) can corn, drained
  • 1 (10 ounce) can cream of chicken soup
  • 1 (4 ounce) package cream cheese, cubed
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • Salt and black pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Place the chicken breasts in the bottom of your slow cooker.
  2. Pour the rinsed beans, both cans of diced green chilies (including liquid), and drained corn over the chicken.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the cream of chicken soup, chicken broth, cumin, oregano, garlic powder, and onion powder. Pour this mixture over the ingredients in the slow cooker.
  4. Place the cubed cream cheese evenly over the top of the mixture. Do not stir yet.
  5. Cover the slow cooker and cook on LOW for 6 to 8 hours or on HIGH for 3 to 4 hours.
  6. Once cooked, remove the chicken breasts and shred them using two forks. Return the shredded chicken to the slow cooker.
  7. Stir everything together until the cream cheese is fully melted and the chili is creamy.
  8. Taste and add salt and pepper as needed. Serve hot with your favorite toppings.

Notes

  • For a slightly spicier chili, use one can of hot diced green chilies instead of one mild can.
  • Shredded chicken chili freezes well. Cool completely before storing in an airtight container for up to three months.
  • Toppings like shredded Monterey Jack cheese, fresh cilantro, avocado slices, or a dollop of sour cream add texture and flavor.
