Slow Cooker White Chicken Chili is a pretty easy and healthy recipe for the Crock Pot!

You can jazz it up with toppings of choice like cheese, hot sauce, lime wedges, and even avocado.

We added some Fritos for a nice crunch too 🙂

White chicken chili is basically chili made with no tomatoes, and with chicken instead of beef.

Definitely a nice change from my traditional chili.

How to make Slow Cooker White Chicken Chili

We have some basic chili ingredients to start with.

First put 1 1/2 pounds of chicken in the slow cooker and add a diced onion and some minced garlic.

Then add a can of corn (drained) and a can of green chiles or jalapenos.

And the spices which include chili powder, paprika, Old Bay, cumin, kosher salt, and pepper.

Simple enough so far, right?!

Finally add 4 cups of chicken broth.

And set the Crock Pot to low for 6 to 8 hours.

Once it’s all cooked, use two forks to shred the chicken right in the slow cooker.

Then add some sour cream and stir it all together.

Taste for seasoning and add more of the spices or kosher salt and pepper if needed.

This next step is optional, but recommended for a creamier and thicker chili.

Use an immersion blender and pulse it a few times to slightly blend the chili.

Or you can transfer some of the chili to a blender or food processor and then put it back in the Crock Pot.
