Crockpot White Chicken Chili
Sometimes it’s nice to mix things up and serve a white chili instead of a traditional tomato based one. There’s something special about the way all the flavors meld together into a yummy comforting dinner that’s sooo easy.
It’s Erin from Suburban Simplicity back this month with a family-favorite for you! We love this Crockpot White Chicken Chili because it’s so easy and also delicious the next day for lunch!
This recipe couldn’t be more simple. I just got a new crockpot because my previous one was worn out from so much use! This was the first recipe I couldn’t wait to make in the new one. The next will be my kid’s favorite – Crockpot Pizza Casserole. For the chili, you simply place all the ingredients, except the beans, corn, and cream cheese (if you’re using) into your slow cooker and let it simmer for 6 hours on low, or 4 hours on high.
About a half hour before it’s done, you can then add the corn, cream cheese (if using) and beans. Once it’s finished cooking, you take out the tender chicken, shred it and place it back into the crockpot to serve.
It’s time to ladle it into some bowl and top with any of the suggested yummy toppings including cheese, jalapeños, and chips!

Helpful Tips to make Crockpot White Chicken Chili:
- You can use either chicken breasts or chicken thighs in this recipe, or a combination of both.
- This is a flavorful but mild chili, so If you prefer it spicier, feel free to add some jalapeños while the recipe is cooking in addition to adding them as a garnish.
- Depending on your preference, you can either leave the chicken in larger chunks or shred it once it’s done cooking.
- The cream cheese is optional. If you want a creamier chili, add it to the crockpot 30 minutes before it’s done cooking.
- For thicker chili, blend the liquid with an immersion blender before you put back in your shredded or chunked chicken.
What you will need to make Crockpot White Chicken Chili:
- Crockpot– this kitchen appliance is a must have any time of the year for set it and forget it recipes.
- Ladle – great for serving soups, stews and chili recipes.
Enjoy!
