Slow Cooker Chicken Taco Chili


Prep: 5 min; Cook: 8 hr; Servings (1 cup): 10

1 onion, diced (optional)
1 16-oz can black beans
1 16-oz can kidney beans
1 8-oz can tomato sauce
1 8-oz can corn 
2 (14.5-oz) cans diced tomatoes w/chilies
1 packet taco seasoning
1 tbsp cumin
1 tbsp chili powder (can reduce this amount for less spiciness)
2 garlic cloves, minced
3-4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
1 package shredded cheddar cheese


Combine beans, onion, corn, tomato sauce, cumin, chili powder, garlic, taco seasoning in crockpot. Place the chicken on top and cover.

Cook on low for 8-10 hours or on high for 6-8 hours.

Before serving, use a fork to shred the chicken, and stir to mix.

Serve over cooked rice and top with shredded cheddar cheese.  

Tip:
This is also great topped with fresh cilantro, sour cream, and jalapenos.  


It keeps very well in the refrigerator and tastes even better the next day. 

For additional flavor, squeeze a little fresh lime juice (to taste) into the meat and stir.

Note:

I buy chicken breasts that are naturally raised, so they tend to be on the small size. If your chicken breasts are large, you may only want to use 2-3 chicken breasts.
