I love gluten-free white chicken chili. It’s so easy to make and tastes so good and I really like this recipe for cooking it in the slow cooker. Definitely a keeper!

Scale

Ingredients

  • 2.5 lbs Boneless Skinless Chicken Thighs
  • 3 cans Great Northern Beans, drained
  • 2 8 oz cans Diced Green Chilies
  • 1 Very large yellow Onion (diced)
  • 1 Tbl Garlic, (minced)
  • 2 tsp Cumin
  • 1 tsp Chili Powder
  • 1/4 tsp White Pepper
  • 1 Tbl Coarse Real Salt *
  • 2 Cups Chicken Broth

Optional Ingredients (See Notes)

Topping:

  • 1/3 Cup Cilantro (chopped)

Instructions

  1. Place the chicken thighs, beans, chilies, onion, garlic, cumin, chili powder, pepper, salt, chicken broth, and coconut milk in a crock pot. Cook on high for 5-6 hours, or until chicken is very tender.
  2. Remove the chicken and place in a bowl. Lightly shred with a fork.
  3. Place the arrowroot starch in a small bowl and slowly whisk in the 1/2 C. water to make a smooth, lump-free mixture. Stir the mixture into the chili in the crock pot.
  4. Add the chicken back into the chili and stir to distribute. Let cook for another 30 minutes. Soup should thicken up.
  5. Add the cilantro to the soup just before serving and check the seasonings, adding more salt or pepper if desired. If you want the soup to be a little thinner, add more chicken broth or coconut milk until desired consistency is achieved.
  6. Top with a squeeze of lime juice.

Notes

I often leave out the optional ingredients. I personally feel if you leave out the milk then you don’t need the arrowroot starch to thicken it up. I think the arrowroot can make it slimey.

But it is creamier and richer with it in. It’s a bit of a personal preference on what you like.

I often add in fresh or canned jalepeno peppers in addition to or instead of the diced green chilies.
