There is nothing quite like coming home to the smell of a warm, savory chili waiting for you. My family loves this recipe because it is filling, healthy, and so simple to put together on a busy weeknight.

For the best results, you can use either canned or frozen corn depending on what you have in your pantry. If you like a little extra heat, feel free to add a pinch of chili flakes before you start the slow cooker.

2 large chicken breasts
1 can black beans, drained and rinsed

👩‍🍳Instructions

Place the chicken breasts at the bottom of your slow cooker.

Cover and cook on low for 6 to 8 hours or on high for 3 to 4 hours.

💡 Tips

Serve this chili with a dollop of sour cream, some shredded cheddar cheese, or fresh cilantro. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days or freeze it for a quick meal later.
