Crockpot Smoky White Bean Chicken Chili

I am always on the hunt for new recipes to throw into my crockpot and sometimes, like this one, I use a regular soup/chili recipe and adjust it to cook in my crockpot. As a workin' lady, throwing a bunch of junk into the crockpot is easier than spending 1-2 hours after work in the kitchen. My husband is the king of protein and this chili rocks on the protein scale! And it goes great with the beer bread I posted last week.

Ingredients
3 slices uncooked bacon, chopped
1 whole large white onion, diced
3 cloves chopped garlic
3 large raw chicken breasts
1 tsp paprika
1 tsp cumin
1 tsp onion powder

½ tsp chili powder
5 cups chicken broth
1 can (28-ounce Size) diced tomatoes
4 cans (14.5 Ounce Size) White Beans, Cannelini Or Great Northern
2 cans (4 Ounce Size) diced green chilies
Salt And Pepper, to taste


1. Pour all ingredients into crockpot and stir to combine
2. Cook on low for 6 hours, stirring and shredding chicken occasionally
3. Serve warm topped with shredded cheese, cottage cheese, cilantro, etc. 

Soup is hard to photograph!
