Instructions

  1. Prepare the Slow Cooker: Place the chicken breasts (or thighs) in the bottom of your slow cooker.
  2. Add the Ingredients: Add the diced tomatoes, chicken broth, chili powder, salt, cumin, black beans, brown rice, and frozen corn. Stir to combine.
  3. Cook: Cover and cook on low for 6-7 hours or on high for 3-4 hours, until the chicken is fully cooked and the rice is tender.
  4. Shred the Chicken: Once cooked, remove the chicken from the slow cooker, shred it using two forks, and return it to the slow cooker.
  5. Serve: Stir the shredded chicken into the rice and beans mixture. Serve hot in bowls, topped with your choice of shredded cheese, chopped cilantro, sour cream, diced avocado, salsa, hot sauce, green onions, and shredded lettuce.
