White Beans Chicken Chili

Enjoy classic chicken chili without the tomato sauce. I use a crockpot to make this recipe even easier for busy moms.

Ingredients:
2 cups leftover roasted chicken
1 can Great Northern beans, rinsed and drained
2 cups chicken broth
1 cup corn
1/2 cup roasted salsa verde (store-bought)
1 tbs fresh oregano or 1 tsp dry
1 tsp cumin
1 tsp cayenne
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 small onion, chopped

Salt and pepper to taste
Garnish with chopped cilantro

Directions:
In a medium sauté pan, add 2 tbs oil. Sauté garlic and onions until fragrant (about 2 minutes). Add cumin, cayenne, oregano, and salsa verde and cook for 2 minutes. Add the chicken broth and bring to boil.
 
In a 4 qt crockpot, place chicken, corn, and beans. Pour the chicken broth on top. Season with salt and pepper. Cover the crockpot with lid and turn heat to low. Cook 4 to 5 hours. If desired, add your choice of cheese 10 minutes before finishing cooking or until the cheese has melted. Sprinkle with cilantro and serve.
