Ingredients

Scale

2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 large onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 (15 ounce) cans cannellini beans, rinsed and drained
1 (4 ounce) can diced green chilies
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)
4 cups chicken broth
1 cup heavy cream
Salt and black pepper to taste
Optional toppings: shredded cheese, sour cream, chopped cilantro, avocado

Instructions

Place chicken breasts in the bottom of your slow cooker.
Add chopped onion, minced garlic, rinsed cannellini beans, diced green chilies, cumin, oregano, chili powder, and cayenne pepper (if using) on top of the chicken.
Pour chicken broth over the ingredients.
Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 3-4 hours, until chicken is cooked through.
Remove chicken from the slow cooker and shred it with two forks.
Return the shredded chicken to the slow cooker.
Stir in heavy cream.
Season with salt and black pepper to your liking.
Stir everything together and cook for another 15-20 minutes on high, or until heated through and creamy.
Serve hot with your favorite toppings.

Notes

For a spicier chili, add an extra pinch of cayenne pepper or a jalapeño pepper, minced.
If you prefer a thicker chili, you can mash some of the beans against the side of the slow cooker before adding the cream.
This chili freezes well. Let it cool completely before transferring to freezer-safe containers.
