Hello Friends! I hope you are having a great week! The weather is definitely changing as the cool breeze hits in the afternoon and evenings. It is on evenings like these that I look forward to a warm and comforting meal.

Today’s Slow cooker chili recipe is an easy one when you are looking for a tasty chili for dinner or game day. The recipe just takes a few ingredients and what I love is that it usually makes enough for leftovers. 

We eat the leftovers as is and sometimes over a baked potato for a second hearty meal. 

Chili is one of those dishes that is always comforting and always easy. It is also easy to change up a bit and make it a little different once in a while. If you like this recipe, be sure to check out:

This recipe just takes a few ingredients. Most of the items are from your pantry. 

List of main ingredients:

Chicken – I recommend boneless, skinless cooked chicken for this recipe. You can use a rotisserie chicken or leftover chicken. 

Beans – This recipe uses two types – pinto and cannellini beans (white beans). The mixture of the two beans adds a nice flavor to the chili. 

Broth – I like to use low-sodium chicken broth. You can always add more salt if you need to but at least you can control the amount a bit. You can also use broth you make yourself.

Ingredients

• 2 to 3 cups boneless, skinless cooked chicken, cut into bite-size pieces
• 2 cups low sodium chicken broth
• 1 white onion, diced
• 1 stalk celery, diced
• 2 cloves minced garlic,
• 1 (16 oz) jar salsa verde
• 1 jalapeño, seeded and diced
• 2 (15 oz) cans cannellini beans, rinsed and drained
• 1 (15oz) can pinto beans, rinsed and drained
• 1 tablespoon ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• ¼ teaspoon red pepper
• ¼ teaspoon black pepper
• 1 cup shredded Monterey jack cheese
• 2 tablespoons chopped cilantro, for garnishing if desired

Instructions

1. Combine all ingredients in the slow cooker EXCEPT for the cheese.

2. Cook on high for 2 hours or low for 4 hours.

3. Stir in the cheese until melted and smooth.

4. Serve topped with additional cheese, sour cream, and/or chopped cilantro, if desired.

 

• Chop the celery and onions earlier in the day (or week) and store in the refrigerator until ready to use. It saves time if you can meal plan and do this just once during the week for all of your meals.
• Shred the cheese ahead of time (and cilantro too) so that the toppings are ready when you are. Sometimes I chop a bit of onion for topping too!
• Double the recipe and freeze in individual portions for a quick future meal.
