- 2 cups Chicken broth
- 1 cup Frozen corn
- 1 medium Onion (diced)
- 3 cloves Garlic cloves (minced)
- 2 tbsp Chili powder
- 1 tbsp Ground cumin
- 1 tsp Paprika

Instructions
Place the chicken breasts at the bottom of the crock pot.
Add the black beans, diced tomatoes, chicken broth, frozen corn, diced onion, and minced garlic into the crock pot.
Sprinkle the chili powder, ground cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper evenly over the ingredients in the crock pot.
Stir gently to combine, ensuring the chicken remains at the bottom.
Cover and cook on LOW for 6-8 hours or on HIGH for 3-4 hours, until the chicken is fully cooked and tender.
Once cooking time is up, remove the chicken breasts from the crock pot and shred them using two forks.
Return the shredded chicken back to the crock pot and stir to combine with the chili.
Add the lime juice, stirring it in for a fresh citrusy kick.
Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt or pepper if needed.
Serve hot, topped with optional garnishes like freshly chopped cilantro, sour cream, or shredded cheddar cheese. Pair with tortilla chips for dipping if desired.
