Stir in the heavy cream. Allow the chili to heat through for a few minutes before serving. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. (5 minutes)
For a smokier flavor, add a teaspoon of smoked paprika to the chili.
Feel free to substitute other greens like spinach, collard greens, or turnip greens based on your preference.
To make this dish even richer, consider adding a dollop of sour cream or Greek yogurt when serving.
If you prefer a thicker chili, mix a tablespoon of cornstarch with two tablespoons of cold water and stir it into the chili during the last 30 minutes of cooking.
For a vegetarian version, omit the chicken and use vegetable broth.

Oct 3, 2024I found that 6 hours was a little too long for my slow cooker, the chicken was a bit dry. Next time, I'll check it after 5 hours.

Sep 20, 2024The garlic and herb seasoning really adds a nice depth of flavor. I also like to add a pinch of cayenne pepper for a little kick.
