Cooking
  1. Add the chicken, onion, garlic, beans, corn, green chilies, chicken broth, and all the spices to the slow cooker.
  2. Cover and cook on low for 6–8 hours or on high for 3–4 hours until the chicken is tender and cooked through.
  3. Remove the chicken and shred it using two forks. Return the shredded chicken to the crockpot.
  4. Add the softened cream cheese. Stir and cook for 30 more minutes until it’s melted and smooth.
  5. Serve hot, topped with your favorite garnishes.

Notes

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days or freeze for up to 3 months. For extra creaminess, add more cream cheese or some heavy cream before serving.
