Southwest Chicken Chili in the Crockpot

March 18, 2014 by Katie

Whether you eat it on hotdogs, on pasta, on fries, or just straight up, there’s no doubt chili is a pretty versatile dish. There are also millions of recipes for the popular dish, so it never gets boring. The possibilities seem endless.

I’ve only made my dad’s classic tomato-based chili with ground beef and beans, and while I absolutely love his homemade version, I figured I would venture out and make my own recipe.

Southwest Chicken Chili in the Crock Pot

I’m actually quite proud of this recipe. Thanks to the “secret” ingredient of plain Greek yogurt, it has a creamy flavor that sets it apart from the usual chilis.

We enjoyed this for leftovers the next day as well. I highly recommend topping it with some tortilla chips and cheddar, though, because it really takes it to the next level. It bumps down the healthy level, but sometimes you’ve just gotta do it.

Enjoy!

    I make this every other week! It’s amazing. It’s a super simple meal that last all week. I made a few modifications like not adding yogurt or milk and buying super hot salsa to give it a kick.
