CHICKEN, BEANS, AND BARLEY SLOW COOKER CHILI



Chicken, Beans, and Barley Slow Cooker Chili image

Quick-cooking barley and pre-cooked chicken makes this pot of chili quick, thick, and comforting. I am going to serve it with Cheddar cornbread. Serve with what ever toppings you might like. I used stock that I made from the picked chicken that I used for the chili. Made it that much richer.

BARLEY CHICKEN CHILI

I was looking for a new recipe for chicken when I discovered a dish I thought my husband might like. After making a few changes and additions to fit our preferences, I had this zesty chili simmering on the stovetop. It was great! Leftovers store well in the freezer.

DELICIOUS CHICKEN BARLEY CHILI



Delicious Chicken Barley Chili image

This is a nice hearty meal that goes together very quickly. You can see how easy this recipe is to adjust for your family's "spicy" tolerance. None of these ingredients are ever really "optional" here. I tend to add more garlic and some cayenne if there aren't any kids eating. You can use the seasoned varieties of the beans, tomatoes, or anything else. I love Rotel. I serve with some warmed pitas or tortillas.

1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes
2 cups chicken stock
1 1/2 cups frozen corn kernels

  • Taste to adjust seasonings - I'm sure I add more chili powder and cumin than this calls for, maybe a touch of oregano.
  • Salt is up to you - always easier to add it at the end than start with too much.
