Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In your Crockpot, add the boneless skinless chicken breasts, white beans, chicken broth, chopped yellow onion, minced garlic, and the spices—salt, oregano, thyme, and cumin. Stir everything together until well mixed.
  2. Cover the Crockpot with its lid and set the temperature to cook on high for 4 to 5 hours or low for 6 to 7 hours.
  3. Once the cooking time is up, carefully remove the lid and taste the chili. Adjust the seasoning by adding more salt or spices as desired.
  4. Using forks, shred the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces and return them back into the chili.
  5. For a creamier texture, blend a portion of the white beans directly in the Crockpot.
  6. When ready to serve, ladle portions into bowls and top with freshly squeezed lemon juice and your choice of toppings.
