Crock Pot Mexican Chicken Chili image

I was fooling around with basic staples that I have in the house and on a whim, threw this together. It was a HIT! Not quite sure what to name it, but it reminds me of a chili of sort, so I named it Mexican Chicken Chili.

Time 6h10m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

5 boneless skinless chicken breasts (can be frozen)
1 (1 1/4 ounce) packet chicken taco seasoning mix
1 (32 ounce) can petite diced tomatoes
1 (15 ounce) can dark red kidney beans, undrained
1 (15 ounce) can garbanzo beans, undrained
1 (15 ounce) can corn (or use frozen)
1/4 cup butter (sliced)
1 tablespoon salt
diced raw white onion (optional)
1 lime, juice of
sour cream (optional)
tortilla chips (optional)

Steps:

  • Place chicken breasts in bottom of crock pot.
  • Top with Seasoning Mix, Diced Tomatoes, Kidney Beans, Garbanzo beans and Corn.
  • Slice butter and arrange on top of mixture. Sprinkle salt on top.
  • Cook on High 6 hours.
  • When done, use two forks and shred the chicken in the crock pot.
  • While your shredding, put on a pot of white rice. I usually cook 2 cups of rice to go with mixture. Or, you can serve in warm tortillas, eat like a soup or use tortilla "scoop" chips to eat.
  • Put rice in bowl and serve chicken mixture on top of the rice. Optional and VERY YUMMY toppings would be chopped white onion, sour cream, crumbled tortilla chips and then a nice squeeze of fresh lime juice. Fantastic when served with everything!
  • Enjoy!
