SLOW-COOKER WHITE CHICKEN CHILI

Steps:

• Put the chicken breasts in a 6- to 8-quart slow cooker. Mix the cumin, coriander, oregano, paprika, red pepper flakes, salt and a few grinds of pepper in a small bowl. Sprinkle the spices over the chicken.
• Add the beans, green chiles, garlic and chicken broth to the slow cooker and stir it all around. Cover and cook on low until the chicken is cooked through and easy to shred, 7 to 8 hours.
• Remove the chicken to a medium bowl and shred with two forks.
• Combine the heavy cream and masa harina in a small bowl. Mix until smooth.
• Return the chicken to the slow cooker along with the masa mixture and corn. Cover and cook until the chili is thickened and the corn is warmed through, about 30 minutes. Ladle the chili into bowls and top with cheese and avocado. Serve with lime wedges.

SLOW COOKER CHICKEN AND BROCCOLI

Steps:

• Season the chicken chunks lightly with salt and pepper and put them in a slow cooker. Sprinkle over the five-spice powder. Stir together the stock, soy sauce, ginger, sriracha and garlic in a small bowl and pour over the chicken. Cover and cook on high for 3 1/2 hours.
• After 3 1/2 hours, mix together the cornstarch with 2 tablespoons water in a small bowl. Stir it into the slow cooker along with the sesame oil. Add the broccoli and peppers, cover and continue cooking on high for 30 minutes. Taste the sauce and adjust the seasoning.
• Serve over rice garnished with scallions and sesame seeds.
