Ingredients in White Chicken Chili
These ingredients are some of my favorites. The garlic with the coriander and cumin brings in a lot of great taste without making it spicy. Check out the recipe card at the bottom of the post for all of the exact measurements.
- Onion: You can use a yellow or a white onion in this recipe.
- Minced Garlic: I love the flavor that the garlic brings to this dish! In my opinion, you can never have too much garlic!
- Cooked Chicken: To make it easy on myself, I use a rotisserie chicken or canned chicken so that it’s all cooked. All you have to do is shred it up!
- Spices: The ground cumin, ground coriander, salt, and ground black pepper give this chili so much flavor!
- Chicken Broth: Using chicken broth as the base gives this chili a lot more flavor than water would.
- Green Chiles: Is it even a chili recipe without some green chilis?
- Cannellini Beans: Drain and rinse your beans before adding them in with the rest of the ingredients.
- Sour Cream: This makes the whole recipe come together and makes it nice and creamy.
Is White Chicken Chili Easy to Make?
Yes! This crockpot white chicken chili recipe is so simple and it’s the best because it just cooks in your slow cooker all day long!
- Combine: Add all the ingredients except for the sour cream to a 4 or 6-quart slow cooker.
- Cook: Cook on high for 4-6 hours or on low for 8-10 hours.
- Add Sour Cream: When it is done cooking, then stir in the sour cream and let it cook for 10 minutes more until heated through.

Tips and Variations
There are ways to change up this crockpot white chicken chili to make it as spicy (or not spicy) as you want, what beans to use, and suggestions for toppings!
- Dice: Keep your chicken the same bite-sized pieces to cook evenly.
- Should I drain the diced chilis? This recipe calls to drain your green chilies, but I often don’t. I like the extra kick of spice it adds to the broth. There isn’t that much to drain off either, so it’s easier to just dump it all in.
- Heat: If you really want to spice it up, you can use medium or hot chilies or even canned diced jalapenos.
- Toppings: Cheese, sour cream, avocado, cilantro, tomatoes, corn, and tortilla strips are all some of my favorite toppings.
- Beans: I like to use cannellini beans or the smaller great northern beans, but you can also use white kidney beans if you prefer.
