Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 8 servings

  • 1 pound skinless, boneless chicken breasts

  • 1 pound skinless, boneless chicken thighs

  • 1 cup diced onion

  • 1 cup buffalo wing sauce, (such as Frank’s® RedHot Buffalo sauce), plus more for serving

  • 1 (14.5 ounce can) fire roasted diced tomatoes

  • 2 (4 ounce) cans green chiles

  • 1 (1 ounce) packet ranch seasoning mix

  • 1 tablespoon chili powder

  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika

  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin

  • 2 1/2 cups chicken broth

  • 2 (15.5 ounce) cans white beans, drained and rinsed

  • 8 ounces cream cheese, softened

  • sour cream, shredded Cheddar cheese, and sliced green onions, for garnish

Directions

  1. Add chicken breasts, chicken thighs, onion, wing sauce, tomatoes, green chiles, ranch seasoning, chili powder, paprika, cumin, and chicken broth to a slow cooker. Cook on High for 2 hours or Low for 3 to 4 hours.
