Dice the onion and mince the garlic cloves.
Drain and rinse the black beans and kidney beans.
Place the chicken breasts in the slow cooker and season with half the chili powder, cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Add the diced onions, minced garlic, canned diced tomatoes (including the juice), black beans, kidney beans, frozen corn, and chicken broth to the slow cooker.
Sprinkle the remaining chili powder, cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper over the mixture.
Stir gently to combine, ensuring the chicken breasts are fully submerged in the liquid.
Cover the slow cooker with its lid and cook on low heat for 6 hours or on high heat for 3-4 hours.
After the cooking time is complete, use two forks to shred the chicken breasts directly in the slow cooker.
Stir in the cream cheese until it melts and is fully incorporated into the chili.
Taste and adjust seasonings if necessary. Add more salt or spices for extra flavor.
Serve the chili hot in bowls, garnished with chopped cilantro if desired. Enjoy!
