Ingredients
Scale
- 3 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 diced tomatoes with green chilies, undrained
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1 packet (1 ounce) dry ranch seasoning mix
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, cut into cubes
- 1 cup frozen corn (optional)
Instructions
- Place the chicken breasts in the bottom of your slow cooker.
- Top the chicken with the cannellini beans, Great Northern beans, diced green chilies, diced tomatoes with green chilies, and chicken broth.
- Sprinkle the ranch seasoning mix, cumin, oregano, pepper, and salt evenly over the ingredients.
- Place the cubed cream cheese on top of everything.
- Cover the slow cooker and cook on low for 6 to 8 hours or on high for 3 to 4 hours.
- About 30 minutes before serving, remove the chicken breasts and shred them using two forks. Return the shredded chicken to the slow cooker.
- Stir everything together until the cream cheese is fully melted and the chili is creamy. If using, stir in the frozen corn.
- Serve hot with your favorite toppings.
Notes
- For a thicker chili, remove about 1 cup of the liquid mixture before shredding the chicken, mix with 1 tablespoon of cornstarch, and stir back into the slow cooker after shredding.
- Shredded chicken works best, but you can also use pre-cooked rotisserie chicken if you are short on time.
- Top this hearty slow cooker soup with shredded Monterey Jack cheese, fresh cilantro, or a dollop of sour cream for extra flavor.
