Chicken thighs are a pleasing change of pace in chili. Sour cream helps turn down the heat.

Expert Tips

Regular stewed tomatoes, along with some chopped onion and a dash of garlic powder or finely chopped fresh garlic, can be used in place of the flavored stewed tomatoes.

Lifting the lid of your slow cooker can add up to 20 minutes of cooking time. Instead, spin the lid to clear it of condensation so you can check the food.

For super-quick dinners and totable lunches, freeze the chili in single-serving freezer containers. Thaw, then heat in the microwave on High for 4 to 5 minutes, stirring once or twice, until hot.

This recipe is so easy. I love when you can just dump everything into a slow cooker and have a great meal by the end of the day. The only change I made was to add more bell pepper. Topping it with sour cream and cilantro is a must.

I really like this recipe; it's really easy to put together, and I get to freeze the left overs for when I just don't want to cook. I added about half a cup of Maseca to it because it's a little too thin, but I think that adds to the enchilada flavor. I also added some cumin and some adobo to bring in more flavor. Overall, I really like this dish and will be making it again!
