Slow Cooked White Chicken Chili

Hello Friends and Happy Slow Cooker Saturday!

 

This was my first attempt at making chili using chicken instead of ground beef or ground turkey, and using white beans instead of red kidney or black beans…the verdict is FAIL!

Personally, I like my foods spicy especially chili, but this recipe although was good, was too bland for even my men.  I added hot sauce but it still didn’t jazz it up, so if you like chili with no kick, this one is for you!

Slow Cooked White Chicken Chili

Ingredients:

  • 4 medium frozen chicken breasts
  • 1/2 bag small white beans
  • 1 large can of diced tomatoes
  • 1 package Chili Seasoning
  • 1 cup of water

 

Rinse the beans under cold water and drain, mix Chili Seasoning into a cup of water.

Coat Crock Pot with Cooking Spray

Add frozen chicken breasts and beans

Pour in Chili Seasoning Mix

I added more water to cover the beans so they wouldn’t burn.  This may have watered down the seasoning causing it to taste bland.  I should have used two packages of Chili Seasoning.

Pour in diced tomatoes

It looked better than it tasted…but hey, I tried!  

Have you ever made White Chicken Chili, how did you make it?

Poured mixture over the chicken and mushrooms, covered and cooked on high for 4 hours. I was home today but if I had gone to work I would have set it on low to cook for 8 hours.
