Ingredients

Scale

Chicken and Seasoning

  • 1 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breast
  • 1 packet Simply Organic® Mild Taco Seasoning Mix
  • 1 can (4 ounces) diced green chilies
  • 1 yellow onion, diced

Beans and Vegetables

  • 2 cans (15 ounces each) white beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 1/2 cups frozen corn

Liquids

  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • Juice from 1 lime

Creamy Ingredients

  • 4 ounces cream cheese
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream

Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients in Slow Cooker: Add the chicken breasts, taco seasoning, diced green chilies, diced onion, white beans, frozen corn, chicken broth, and lime juice into the slow cooker. Gently stir all the ingredients together to combine. Cook on high for 4 to 6 hours or on low for 6 to 8 hours, allowing the flavors to meld and the chicken to cook through.
  2. Shred the Chicken: Once the cooking time is complete, remove the chicken breasts from the slow cooker. Place them on a cutting board and shred the chicken using two forks until it’s pulled apart into bite-sized pieces.
  3. Incorporate Creamy Ingredients: Return the shredded chicken to the slow cooker. Add the cream cheese and heavy cream to the pot, stirring well for 1 to 2 minutes until the cream cheese has melted and all ingredients are fully incorporated, creating a rich, creamy chili base.
  4. Heat and Serve: Stir the mixture thoroughly to ensure the chicken is heated through. Serve the chili hot, garnished with toppings such as diced avocado, sour cream, and fresh cilantro to enhance the flavors and presentation.

Notes

  • You can substitute chicken thighs for a juicier result.
  • Adjust the seasoning to your preferred spice level by adding jalapeños or hot sauce.
  • For a thicker chili, remove the lid during the last 30 minutes to allow some liquid to evaporate.
  • Make sure to rinse canned beans well to reduce sodium.
  • This chili freezes well; store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 months.
