This White Bean and Chicken Chili is one of my favorite meals to make year-round. I usually have everything that I need in my pantry and it comes together in a matter of minutes.

It’s also a great meal to make for a quick and healthy lunch. If you are into doing healthy meal prep, this one of my go-to recipes that I make at the beginning of the week and then enjoy it as a healthy lunch all week long.

If you wanted, you could also make this in a crock pot! See below for the instructions.

Ingredients needed for White Bean and Chicken Chili:

chicken broth
cooked, shredded chicken (a rotisserie chicken works great for this)
canned Great Northern beans (drained and rinsed)
mild salsa verde
ground cumin
fresh cilantro
avocado (optional garnish)

How to make White Bean and Chicken Chili:

This recipe is basically a “dump and go” recipe – add chicken broth, cooked chicken, beans, salsa verde and cumin into a large stock pot on the stove. Stir everything together.

Cook over medium high heat until it starts to boil, then reduce heat to low. Simmer for 5 minutes.

Ladle soup into bowls and garnish each bowl with chopped avocado and cilantro.

How to make this chili in your slow cooker:

This is a simple meal to make in your slow cooker as well.

When I make this recipe in the slow cooker, I use frozen chicken breasts.

Place chicken breasts, chicken broth, beans, salsa verde and cumin into a slow cooker. Cover with lid and cook on HIGH heat for 3-4 hours or on LOW heat for 5-6 hours.

Remove chicken breasts from slow cooker and shred with 2 forks, then add chicken back into the slow cooker.

Mix well and ladle into bowls, adding avocado and cilantro as garnish.
