Directions
Step 1
Place the chicken breasts at the bottom of the crock pot.
Step 2
Add the drained and rinsed black beans, diced tomatoes (with their liquid), tomato sauce, and frozen corn on top of the chicken.
Step 3
Sprinkle the chili powder, ground cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper evenly over the ingredients in the crock pot.
Step 4
Pour the chicken broth over the mixture to keep the chili moist and help meld the flavors together while cooking.
Step 5
Cover the crock pot with its lid and set it to cook on LOW for 6-8 hours or on HIGH for 3-4 hours.
Step 6
Once the chicken is cooked through and tender, use two forks to shred the breasts directly in the crock pot. Stir the shredded chicken into the chili to evenly distribute it.
