SLOW-COOKER CHICKEN & SWEET POTATO CHILI



Slow-Cooker Chicken & Sweet Potato Chili image

I'm a college student and one of the things I miss the most at school is my mom's wonderful cooking. This slow cooker recipe is something I can make in my dorm on a busy Sunday. I just throw it all in the slow cooker before I leave for church and come back to piping hot homemade comfort food. Be sure to serve with a good sprinkle of cheddar cheese, a dollop of sour cream, and plenty of tortilla chips. -Bailey Starkey, Mount Vernon, Washington

Tips for Making Sweet Potato Chili in a Crock Pot

- **Use a variety of sweet potatoes.** This will give your chili a more complex flavor and texture. You can use orange, white, or purple sweet potatoes, or a combination of all three. - **Roast the sweet potatoes before adding them to the chili.** This will help them caramelize and develop a deeper flavor. - **Use a good quality chili powder.** This is the key ingredient in any chili, so don't skimp on it. Look for a chili powder that is made with a variety of chili peppers, and has a deep, rich flavor. - **Add some heat to your chili.** If you like your chili spicy, add a few chopped jalapeños or a teaspoon of cayenne pepper. - **Don't overcook the chili.** Chili is best when it is cooked slowly and gently. Overcooking can make it tough and dry. - **Serve your chili with your favorite toppings.** Some popular toppings include shredded cheese, sour cream, avocado, and cilantro.
