Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a 5- or 6-qt. slow cooker, combine the great Northern beans, cooked chicken breast, Alfredo sauce, and chicken broth. Add in the frozen corn, diced sweet yellow pepper, chopped onion, and drained green chiles.
  2. Sprinkle in the minced garlic cloves, ground cumin, white pepper, and cayenne pepper. Stir gently to incorporate the spices throughout the mixture.
  3. Cover the slow cooker and set it to cook on low for 3 to 4 hours, occasionally stirring.
  4. About 15 minutes before serving, sprinkle the Monterey Jack and pepper jack cheese on top of the chili.
  5. Prior to serving, stir in the sour cream and, if desired, serve with salsa verde and fresh cilantro.
