Slow Cooker Chicken (or Turkey) Chili
I have made this Slow Cooker Chicken Chili many times for my family and friends and it's always well loved and the super easy recipe is often requested.
Ingredients
- 2 tbsp Butter
- 1 tbsp Olive Oil, light
- 2 medium Onions or 1 large, chopped
- 1 large Green Bell pepper, chopped
- 3 Celery stalks, sliced
- 1 Rotisserie chicken or 3 cups left-over cooked chicken or turkey, shredded or sliced into chunks
- 2-3 tsp Ground Cumin or to taste
- 2 cans Great Northern Beans, rinsed and drained
- 16 oz Salsa, choose your heat level – I use Medium.
- 64 oz Chicken Broth
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Heat a large skillet or frying pan and add the oil and butter in it. Once the butter has melted, sauté the onions, celery and bell peppers until the onions have softened and started to brown a little about 5 minutes. Transfer to the slow cooker. I like doing this extra step instead of simply dumping everything on the slow cooker for depth of flavor but if in a hurry you can simply add the veggies in the slow cooker.
- Add the rest of the ingredients in the crockpot and cook for 3 hours on high. Season to taste. Serve with freshly chopped cilantro, cheese and sour cream. Enjoy!
