I’m excited to watch the Super Bowl this Sunday. My team, the Seattle Seahawks, didn’t make it this year. Darn it! Nonetheless, I am very excited to watch the game, all the commercials and the half-time show. I’m also hoping to see my Dad and Stepmom on TV. Yep, they are going to be at the Super Bowl! They won a raffle for an all-expense paid trip to the Super Bowl. Can you believe it? How cool is that! I’m so envious and very happy for them!
Other than being at the actual game, what better way to watch the Super Bowl, than with friends, family bowl of chili? I made some Awesome White Chicken Chili last week and will definitely be making it again on game day. I love, love this chili AND it can be made in a slow-cooker! Thanks goodness for slow-cookers.
My Awesome White Chicken Chili is so easy to make. To help make the chili a little thicker, add one can of drained white beans into a small bowl and smash with a fork before adding to the slow cooker.
Add chicken, white beans and spices with a little bit of chicken broth to a slow cooker. If you want a spicier chili add more jalapenos, if you want a less spicy chili only add one jalapeno. Let simmer on high for 3 ½ to 4 hours or on low for 6 to 7 hours.
After the chicken is done, there should be no pink meat, scoop it out of the slow-cooker with a slotted spoon and shred it with two forks. Add the shredded chicken back into the slow-cooker, give the chili a good stir and let it cook for another half an hour. When time is up, serve the chili with some Monterey Jack cheese and sour cream.
I’ll be excitedly watching the Super Bowl Sunday, with my chili in hand, hoping to see my Dad and Stepmom in the stands. I hope you enjoy your weekend and even if you are not watching the Super Bowl, give my Awesome White Chicken Chili a try. If you do, let me know you made it and take a pic and tag #acupoffrosting on Instagram so I can see it. Enjoy!
