This recipe for white chicken chili is extremely easy and pleases everyone in my family. It’s simple to put together and cooks in the slow cooker all day. Anytime I take this dish to a luncheon or dinner party, it’s a major hit with the guests.
To make things a little more simple, I suggest cooking and shredding the chicken the night before as that is the only step that takes any time at all. Then set your alarm ten minutes early, add the remaining ingredients, turn on the slow cooker, head out for the day, and come home to a delicious meal. Enjoy!

I don’t think I’ve ever noticed great northern beans before. What sort of bean are they?
They’re a white bean, and they don’t bust open when they get really hot like some other beans, so that’s a plus!
Chili is such a great comfort food! Love the way you changed it up~
I have not tried While Chicken Chili. I may have to try your recipe. Thanks!!
