Ingredients

• 2 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 2 cans canned diced tomatoes (14.5 oz each)
• 1 can canned black beans (15 oz, drained and rinsed)
• 1 can canned kidney beans (15 oz, drained and rinsed)
• 1 can canned corn (15 oz, drained)
• 1 piece medium onion, diced
• 1 cup chicken broth
• 2 tablespoons chili powder
• 1 tablespoon ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder

• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon pepper
• 0.5 cup shredded cheddar cheese (optional, for serving)
• 0.25 cup sour cream (optional, for serving)

Directions

Step 1

Place the chicken breasts in the bottom of the crockpot.

Step 2

Add the diced tomatoes, black beans, kidney beans, corn, and diced onion on top of the chicken.

Step 3

Pour in the chicken broth and sprinkle the chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper evenly over the mixture.

Step 4

Stir gently to combine the ingredients, ensuring the chicken is still at the bottom of the crockpot.

Step 5

Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 4 hours.

Step 6

Once cooked, use two forks to shred the chicken directly in the crockpot. Stir well to evenly mix the shredded chicken with the chili.
