Serves: 10-12 cups
Ingredients
  • 1 large boneless skinless chicken breast (~1 lb)
  • 4 cups chicken stock
  • 1 medium onion
  • 1 15-ounce can pinto beans
  • 2 sweet peppers (green or red)
  • 1 15-ounce can black beans
  • 1 15-ounce can sweet corn
  • 28-ounce can diced fire-roasted tomatoes
  • 1 and ½ tablespoons ground cumin
  • 1 tablespoon ground chili powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 cup chopped cilantro
Instructions
  1. Pour chicken stock into the crockpot and set the chicken into it. Turn the slow cooker on high so it warms up while you prep the rest of the recipe.
  2. Dice the sweet peppers and onion and place on top of the chicken.
  3. Drain and rise the pinto beans, black beans, and corn. Place them on top of the diced vegetables.
  4. Pour the entire can of fire roasted tomatoes on top of the mixture and top with spices. Stir the mixture gently so the spices mix into the top layers.
  5. Turn the crockpot on high for 4 hours. Using two forks, shred the chicken breast and add in 1 cup of chopped cilantro.
  6. Serve with avocado, plain Greek yogurt, cilantro, cheese, or chips.
