Ingredients
Scale
- 1.5 lbs 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 diced tomatoes with green chilies, undrained
- 1 (4 ounce) can diced green chilies, undrained (second can)
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1 packet (1 ounce) dry ranch seasoning mix
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 8 ounces cream cheese, cut into cubes
Instructions
- Place the chicken breasts in the bottom of your slow cooker.
- Top the chicken with the cannellini beans, Great Northern beans, both cans of diced green chilies, diced tomatoes with green chilies, chicken broth, ranch seasoning mix, cumin, garlic powder, and black pepper.
- Cover the slow cooker and cook on LOW for 6 to 8 hours or on HIGH for 3 to 4 hours.
- When cooking time is complete, remove the chicken breasts from the slow cooker and shred them using two forks. Return the shredded chicken to the slow cooker.
- Add the cubed cream cheese to the chili. Stir until the cream cheese is completely melted and the chili is creamy.
- Serve hot with your favorite toppings.
Notes
- For a thinner chili, add a splash more chicken broth before serving.
- Shred the chicken easily by placing it in a bowl and using an electric mixer on low speed for about 30 seconds.
- Toppings that work well include shredded Monterey Jack cheese, fresh cilantro, avocado slices, or a dollop of sour cream.
