Healthy Slow Cooker White Chicken Chili warms the body and soul on any chilly day. Lean chicken, vegetables, beans & fresh herbs combine with greek yogurt for a healthy chili to feed a crowd on game-day or your family on any weeknight.
Ladies and gentlemen let me introduce you to your new favorite cool/cold weather favorite, Healthy Slow Cooker White Chicken Chili! This chili just makes me smile 🙂 I have been making this chili for years and it is always a big hit!
There aren’t that many dishes that I return to year after year. I like coming up with new dishes, but this one I return to and can’t wait for! I can’t wait for the weather to turn cooler after one of our scorching southern summers and one of the reasons is so I can make my Healthy Slow Cooker White Chicken Chili 🙂
This might look like a lot of ingredients (and I actually forgot the chicken stock in a box for the pic), but I promise that this comes together quick and easy! Then you just let the slow cooker do all the work…then after 4 hours on high or 8 hours on low, you have the most amazing white chicken chili 🙂
Here is the recipe for Healthy Slow Cooker White Chicken Chili:
- 1 large sweet, yellow onion, sliced
- 4 cloves of fresh garlic, minced or pressed
- 2 lbs. boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 (16 oz.) cans of reduced-sodium great northern beans
- 1 (10 oz.) can of rotel tomatoes (mild or hot, your choice)
- 1 (4.5 oz.) can a chopped green chilis
- 2 tbsp. chili powder
- 1 tbsp. chipotle chili pepper (or less if you don't like spicy...we like spicy)
- 1 tbsp. ground cumin
- 1 tsp. sea salt
- 1 tsp. fresh cracked pepper
- 1 (32 oz.) box of reduced-sodium chicken stock
- 10 oz. frozen corn
- 1 (17.6 oz.) container of nonfat greek yogurt
- Chopped cilantro, shredded mexican blend cheese & avocado for garnish
- Either put a slow cooker liner (which I highly suggest) in the slow cooker bowl or spray it with non-stick cooking spray.
- Add sliced onions and garlic to the bottom of the bowl.
- Add chicken, beans, tomatoes, green chilis.
- Add spices and chicken stock.
- Cover and cook on high for 4 hours or low for 7 hours.
- Add corn and greek yogurt, stir to combine and cook on low for up to an hour more (the chicken should be falling apart).
- Shred chicken and serve garnished with cilantro, shredded mexican blend cheese & avocado (if desired)
