Ingredients
Scale
2 chicken breasts thawed and trimmed of fat
1 ounce taco seasoning 1 packet or 2–3 tablespoons
1 ounce ranch seasoning mix 1 packet
15 ounces canned black beans undrained
15 ounces canned corn undrained
10 ounces canned Rotel tomatoes with green chiles undrained
8 ounces cream cheese
Instructions
Place chicken on the bottom of a Crock Pot and cover with the remaining ingredients.
Cook chili on LOW for 6-8 hours or HIGH for 3-4 hours.
Remove the chicken breasts and shred when chili is done.
Stir the chili to mix the cream cheese and add the shredded chicken.
Top with desired toppings like tortilla strips shredded cheese avocados lime juice and cilantro.
Notes
If you want to wait to add the cream cheese until the end make sure it’s at room temperature before you add it
You can also puree it in a blender with a little broth to get it really smooth before adding it to the soup
If you want to add it in at the beginning like I do you can use a small immersion blender or frother to incorporate any pieces that haven’t melted down
Instead of cream cheese you can use heavy cream or half and half to get a really smooth texture
Start with 1/2 cup and add it 30 minutes before serving
Taste and add more as desired
The chili will thicken up once you add the shredded chicken back in so if you want to thin it out even more you can add a few cups of chicken broth or even water before serving
To reheat this soup put a serving in a microwave safe bowl and add a few tablespoons of water
Cover and heat on high for 1 minute and 30 seconds
