Monday Meals: Southwest Chicken Chili

Sometimes the greatest recipes happen by accident: a "what are we going to have for dinner?!" moment. And that's pretty much what happened with this recipe. The two test kitchens were texting back and forth; and Southwest Chicken Chili was created.  


Southwest Chicken Chili

3 lbs. boneless skinless chicken breasts
8 oz. corn salsa
8 oz. tomato sauce
1 onion, finely chopped
1 can black beans, rinsed and drained
2 tbs. taco seasoning (could use chili seasoning instead)

Directions:
1. Trim all additional fat from chicken breasts
2. Rinse and pat dry chicken breasts, and place in the bottom of the slow cooker
3. Finely chop onion
4. Place onion, corn salsa, tomato sauce and taco seasoning into slow cooker and cook on low for 4 - 5 hours.

5. An hour before the chili is done, add the can of black beans
6. Prior to serving, shred the chicken and adjust seasonings as needed

This chili is delicious the way it is, otherwise you can serve it over chips with cheddar cheese on top.

We hope you enjoy our delicious collaboration as much as we did!
