This kid-friendly slow cooker chicken chili is one of the easiest dinners I’ve ever made.
But it didn’t start out that way.
Back when this chicken chili was a Barefoot Contessa recipe, there were more steps, fewer veggies and certainly more spices. But this DELICIOUS version couldn’t be simpler, or a bigger hit with my whole family.
