How to Make It
Step 1
Combine sliced chicken breasts, cream cheese, one quart of chicken broth, diced bell pepper, diced onion, minced garlic, cumin, paprika, salt, ground coriander, and drained artichoke hearts in the bottom of a 5-quart slow cooker. Add the arrowroot powder (if using) and use a whisk to incorporate the powder into the broth quickly.
Step 2
Place the lid on the pot. Set the timer for four hours on high. If using xanthan gum, add it directly into the broth and give it a good whisk so it doesn’t clump together.
Step 3
Once the timer has passed, taste the chili. Add any additional salt and pepper as desired. You will need to remove the chicken breasts from the slow cooker and shred it into bite-sized pieces.
Step 4
Place the chicken meat back into the slow cooker. Top with slices of avocado and chopped cilantro. Serve hot!
