This crock pot chicken chili is perfect for a busy day. Just dump everything in the crock and come back later to a delicious meal!

What can I say about Slow Cooker Creamy Chicken Chili? Well, it’s what I like to call a “Dump and Go” Recipe. Not having to precook anything makes this so much faster to get going when you need to get going!

This Crock Pot chicken chili has a lot of flavor, and you don’t even have to chop anything to get that flavor! For this recipe I have made good use of pantry spices to save you some time and effort.

This is such a good chili to throw in the slow cooker before you start your busy day!

My readers are always on the lookout for tasty slow cooker recipes that use boneless/skinless chicken breasts. This is a great one because the flavors are so good, and just a little spicy (see the links below for a few of my other slow cooker boneless/skinless chicken breast recipes).

If you want a milder version, skip the Rotel® style tomatoes/chiles and use a 14 oz can of diced tomatoes and a 7 oz can of diced mild green chiles. That cuts the spice by a lot, and those who do like a spicier chili can add some nice red hot sauce!

That’s what I often do as Paul isn’t into spicy food.

You can also use chicken thighs in this chili recipe. They are so rich and tender!

    This recipe has become a staple in my kitchen, especially since I am working from home. I have a small crock pot but I somehow manage to make it fit. I usually use a combination of breast and thighs when I make it. I don’t add the chicken broth due to my size constraints.

    For whatever reason, it’s not letting me click the stars. This is definitely a 5 star recipe.

    Fabulous recipe! Made it exactly as written! Excellent comfort food on a cold and wet night. Family gobbled it up.

    I’m just curious if you prefer to use your actual slow cooker or if you tend to use the slow cooker function on the Instant Pot. I’m new to the Instant pot and have since moved the slow cooker to the basement, but would like to try this recipe. Is it ok to do this in the Instant Pot on the slow cooker function?

      I don’t like the slow cooker function on the IP. I use my actual slow cooker.
