Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Prep the ingredients by chopping the onion, garlic, and bell peppers into small pieces. If using dried beans, soak overnight.
  2. Combine all ingredients in the slow cooker, layering chicken at the bottom followed by beans, vegetables, tomatoes, and broth.
  3. Set the slow cooker to LOW for 6-8 hours or HIGH for 3-4 hours, keeping the lid closed.
  4. Check for doneness by ensuring the chicken shreds easily and beans are tender. Mash some beans for a creamier texture if desired.
  5. Serve the chili hot with your choice of toppings, such as avocado, cilantro, and a dollop of Greek yogurt or sour cream.
