Slow Cooker White Chicken Chili

I guess it's needless to say that I am  slightly obsessed with the slow cooker right now. I love how I can simply dump all the ingredients in, go about my day, and come home to a wonderfully smelling prepared meal. This White Chicken Chili recipe was one of our favorites...

White Chicken Chili
3/4 pound bonless, skinnless chicken breasts cubed
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 onion, chopped
1 green pepper, chopped
1 teaspooon ground cumin
2 tablespoons olive oil
4 minced garlic cloves
2 canes (15 oz) white kidney beans, rinsed and drained
3 cups chicken broth
parmesan rind (optional)
shredded cheddar cheese and sour cream

In a large skillet, cook the chicken cubes in a touch of olive oil. Gradually add the salt, pepper, onion, green pepper, oregano, and cumin and cook until chicken is browned and vegetables are crisp. Add garlic and cook for another minute before transferring everything into your slow cooker.

Pour broth and drained beans into the slow cooker, cover, and cook for 4 hours until the chicken is tender. If you have parmesan rind this is a great addition to the soup and you can add it at any point while the soup is cooking.

Serve warm garnished with sour cream cheddar cheese.
