Need a hearty fall recipe? Try this super easy one using some of the most common staple items that are probably already in your pantry and fridge!
Utensils:
Slow cooker
Ladle / large spoon for stirring
Ingredients:
1 brick of chicken broth
1 can / 1-2 cups of garbanzo beans
1 lb. chicken breasts or tenderloins
1/2 stick of cream cheese
1/2 jar of green chili salsa
Salt and pepper to taste
Optional ingredients: diced garlic or onion
Steps:
Place all ingredients in slow cooker on low for 5-6 hours (or on high for 3-4 hours); the longer you let it simmer, the more the flavors come together!
Stir the ingredients occasionally to help mix them together. If the chili is too thick, add some additional water or chicken broth. If it’s too thin, add some flour to thicken it. Pull the chicken apart (it should naturally come apart as it cooks). Season with salt and pepper as desired.
Garnish with shredded cheese, scallions, or corn. Serve with tortilla chips or crackers. Enjoy!
