Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 cups Great Northern beans (canned, drained and rinsed)
- 4 cups Chicken broth
- 1 cup Green chilies (canned, diced)
- 1 medium Onion (finely diced)
- 3 cloves Garlic (minced)
- 2 teaspoons Cumin
- 1 teaspoon Chili powder
- 1 teaspoon Oregano (dried)
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Pepper
- 4 ounces Cream cheese (softened)
- 0.25 cup Fresh cilantro (chopped, optional for garnish)
- 2 cups Tortilla chips (optional, for serving)
Instructions
Place the boneless, skinless chicken breasts into the bottom of a 6-quart crockpot.
Add the Great Northern beans, chicken broth, diced green chilies, diced onion, and minced garlic to the crockpot.
Sprinkle the cumin, chili powder, oregano, salt, and pepper over the top of the mixture.
Give everything a gentle stir to combine and ensure the chicken is fully submerged in the liquid.
Cover the crockpot with its lid and cook on low for 6 hours or on high for 3-4 hours, until the chicken is fully cooked and tender.
Remove the chicken from the crockpot and shred it using two forks. Return the shredded chicken to the crockpot.
Add the softened cream cheese to the crockpot and stir until it melts into the broth, creating a creamy texture. Allow it to cook for an additional 10-15 minutes until fully combined.
Taste and adjust seasoning if needed, adding more salt or pepper to taste.
Ladle the white chili into bowls and garnish with fresh cilantro if desired. Serve with tortilla chips on the side for dipping or topping.
