Slow Cooker White Chicken Chili {And $400 Amazon Cash Giveaway}

February 21, 2015 by jessfuel 11 Comments

If you had $400 to spend on Amazon, what would you buy? You could get a KitchenAid mixer. Or an iPad. Or 40 books! Anything your little heart desires. If you want a chance to win some spending money, stay tuned!

Slow Cooker White Chicken Chili

I have rediscovered my slow cooker!

When I was working, slow cooker recipes didn’t really work. Most of them call for 6-8 hours of cooking time, but my work day including commute was more like 10. I really only made crock pot recipes on Sundays. Which is totally sad because crock pot recipes are super easy and also super tasty. Plus they make big batches, which is good because Nick likes having leftovers for lunches.

Now that I don’t really have time restrictions, I can crock any day of the week. Woot woot.

Chili is one food that no one ever gets tired of. At least not in our house. I hadn’t made a white chili in forever, so when I saw this recipe from Host the Toast, I had to try it!

Author: Adapted from Host the Toast
Recipe type: Dinner
Ingredients
  • 6 boneless, skinless chicken thighs
  • 2 tsp chili powder
  • 2 tsp cumin
  • 1 small onion, diced
  • 6 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tsp ground oregano
  • ½ tsp ground coriander
  • ¼ tsp cayenne pepper
  • 2 (4.5 oz) cans diced green chiles
  • 1 (15 oz) can corn, drained and rinsed
  • 2 (15.5 oz) cans cannellini beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 (14.5 oz) can chicken broth
  • 3 tbsp butter
  • 3 tbsp flour
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 cube chicken bouillon
  • Salt & pepper, to taste
  • ½ cup plain Greek yogurt (or sour cream)
  • For serving: lime, avocado, cilantro, shredded white cheddar
Instructions
  1. Place chicken thighs in the bottom of a crock pot. Add the chili powder, cumin, onion, garlic, oregano, coriander, cayenne pepper, green chiles, corn, beans, and chicken broth. Stir to combine, cover, and cook on low for 6 hours, or until chicken shreds easily with a fork.
  2. An hour before serving, melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Once the butter melts, whisk in the flour. Whisk constantly, until the flour and butter thicken and brown to the color of peanut butter. Then, slowly whisk in the milk. Add in the chicken bouillon, and continue to whisk as the sauce cooks and thickens and the bouillon cube breaks down, about 5 minutes.
  3. Remove the saucepan from heat and season with salt and pepper. Pour into the crock pot and stir. If the chicken hasn't shredded as you stirred, remove the chicken from the chili and shred with forks before returning to the chili. Cook for an additional hour.
  4. Right before serving, stir in the yogurt.
  5. Serve with lime, avocado, cilantro, and shredded white cheese.

Slow Cooker White Chicken Chili

This chili was delish and a nice change from my usual. As far as I’m concerned, you can never have too many chili recipes. Case in point: Buffalo Chicken Chili, Crock Pot Chili, Meaty Portobello Chili, Mediterranean Chickpea Chili, Chicken-Corn Chili, Sweet Potato and Kielbasa Chili, Easy Three Bean Chili, Chicken Barley Chili. That’s alotta chili!

    This is a BIG hit at my house. My 12- and 9- year old boys love it! My parents made it for their dinner party and guests asked for the recipe. I love it because it’s easy to make as well as delicious to eat. Thank you!

    So I know the recipe calls for 6 chicken breasts but is there an ideal weight of chicken? 6 chicken breasts could be 2lbs or 5! Thanks in advance πŸ™‚
