A warm and comforting slow cooker white chicken chili with creamy white beans, tender chicken, sweet corn, and a bright lime finish, perfect for cozy fall evenings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 large boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1 lb / 450 g)
  • 2 cans white beans (15 oz / 425 g each), drained and rinsed (cannellini or great northern beans)
  • 1 cup frozen corn (150 g)
  • 4 cups chicken broth (950 ml), preferably low-sodium
  • 1 can diced green chilies (4 oz / 115 g)
  • 1 medium onion, finely chopped
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 ½ teaspoons ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • Juice of 1 large lime
  • ½ cup fresh cilantro, chopped (optional)
  • Optional toppings: shredded cheese, sour cream, avocado slices

Instructions

  1. Finely chop the onion and mince the garlic cloves. Drain and rinse the white beans. Measure out the corn if using frozen.
  2. Place the chicken breasts at the bottom of the crockpot. Pour in the chicken broth over the chicken.
  3. Add the drained white beans and corn evenly over the chicken and broth.
  4. Sprinkle ground cumin, dried oregano, salt, and pepper over the top. Add the diced green chilies, chopped onion, and minced garlic.
  5. Cover and cook on low for 6 to 7 hours or on high for 3 to 4 hours until chicken is cooked through and tender.
  6. Remove the chicken breasts and shred them with two forks. Return shredded chicken to the crockpot and stir to combine.
  7. Squeeze lime juice into the chili and stir gently. Add chopped cilantro if using and adjust seasoning to taste.
  8. Serve warm with optional toppings such as shredded cheese, sour cream, or avocado slices.

Notes

If chili is too thick near the end, add a splash of broth or water to loosen. For extra creaminess, stir in sour cream or cream cheese after cooking. Use evenly sized chicken breasts for uniform cooking. Rinse beans to reduce sodium and canned taste. Lime juice can be added just before serving to keep brightness fresh.
