How to cook deliciously - Easy Slow Cooker Chicken Chili

1. Stage

Combine the vegetables and chicken in the slow cooker: If you're using chicken breasts, cut them into 2 or 3 large pieces.

2. Stage

Add the liquids and spices: Add the tomato puree, broth, garlic, and spices to the slow cooker. Stir to mix and coat the chicken and vegetables. (Note: Wait to add the beans, corn, and vinegar until the end of cooking.)

3. Stage

Cover and cook on high for 2 to 4 hours, or low for 6 to 8 hours: It's fine if the chili ends up cooking a little longer on the "low" or "warm," too.

4. Stage

Shred the chicken using two forks: Shred the chicken right in the slow cooker; or if it feels easier, transfer the large pieces to a bowl, shred, and then return the chicken to the slow cooker. Taste the chili and add salt, pepper, or additional spices, if desired.

5. Stage

Stir in the beans, corn, and vinegar, then cover and continue cooking until warmed through: This should take about 15 to 30 minutes. Watch for the chili to start bubbling again.

6. Stage

Serve with toppings: Leftovers will keep refrigerated for up to a week or up to 3 months frozen. Did you love the recipe? Give us some stars and leave a comment below!
