Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Start by dicing the yellow onion and mincing the garlic. Combine in the slow cooker with chicken breasts, drained beans, chiles, and corn. Pour in chicken broth and sprinkle with spices.
  2. Cover the slow cooker and set to low heat. Cook for 6-7 hours or on high for 3-4 hours until the chicken is tender.
  3. Carefully remove the chicken and shred with two forks. Return the shredded chicken to the chili.
  4. Mash ½ to 1 cup of beans against the side of the cooker to thicken the chili, then stir back in.
  5. Lower the heat to warm and gradually stir in the cream cheese until fully melted.
  6. Ladle the chili into bowls and garnish with lime wedges, cheese, or cilantro.
