Crock Pot White Chicken Chili

I love chili – all types!!!  I really like white chicken chili!  And, if it can be made in the crock pot then it is a definite winner in my book!!!

This recipe is super easy and delicious!!  I’ve made it 2 different times and both times it has been a meal that we end up scraping all of it out of the crock pot!!!

White Chicken Chili

  • about 1/2 onion, chopped
  • 1 – 2  T vegetable oil
  • garlic – I did about a spoonful
  • chicken – I always used diced, cooked chicken breast

    this stuff is a lifesaver!

  • Oregano – I just shook some in about 1-2 t
  • cumin – again I just shook some in
  • salt, to tast
  • sour cream or plain yogurt – about 3 spoonfuls (I always use fat-free of either of these but you can use whatever style you choose!!)
  • shredded cheese, 1.5-2 c

Saute the onion in the oil until tender.  Because I used my Ninja crock pot, I just did this right in the crock pot (no extra dishes to wash!!).
