White Bean Chicken Chili is a must on a cold night. We love this simple crock pot meal.

It’s that time of year when a warm hearty soup is what we crave, and if it can be made in a crockpot, even better! This crockpot white bean ranch chicken chili is just that…a delicious mouthful of a hearty soup to warm you up. If you love using slow cooker, you’ll have to check out a bunch of our other favorite slow cooker / crockpot recipes.

This soup can be creamy or not, it’s up to you. Just add a big dollop of sour cream (the word dollop makes me laugh), and just mix it right in. You could also add chips too if you’d like.

Okay, here’s the lineup of ingredients. The full recipe will be below. I love to see all the ingredients lined up before I start. It also helps in case you forget anything.

You want to know something funny? People love to see the raw ingredients in the crockpot before everything is cooked. Isn’t that weird?! So I share it for those who like the visual. For those that get grossed out by raw chicken, sorry about that. If you are planning to make this soup as a Freezer to Crock Pot Meal, I you can freeze all the things you see here in a gallon sized bag. The other items like chicken stock and canned beans can be added later towards the end of the cook time.

We made a quick video so you can see it in action!

You’ll cook the chicken and other ingredients in the slow cooker until the chicken is cooked through and shreds easily.

Once the chicken is cooked all the way, you’ll take it out of the crock pot and let it cool for a minute. Then you will shred it with two forks and then add it back into the crock pot.
