How to Make Low Carb Chicken Chile Verde in a Slow Cooker
Low Carb Crock Pot Soups
Cris here.
Long time readers know how much we LOVE our Crock Pot Pork Chile Verde (and the Electric Pressure Cooker Version), so it should come as no surprise that we would try to switch it up with chicken. I have been making the chicken version of this soup for months and I absolutely love how it gives the dish a bit of a different flavor. Both the pork and chicken versions are now some of my absolute favorite low carb soups! I love the smoky savory flavor combined with the cool sour cream and creamy guacamole!
Crock Pot Chicken Chile Verde Soup Recipe Notes
- We adapted our Crock Pot Pork Chili Verde Soup (Low Carb)(inspired by a recipe found in Easy Low-Carb Slow Cooking) to make this Crock Pot Chicken Chili Verde Soup (Low Carb) Recipe.
- We prefer to use boneless, skinless chicken thighs in this recipe, but you can use chicken breasts if you prefer. You will just need to keep an eye on it the first time you make it to make sure you do not overcook your chicken.
- We use our favorite guacamole recipe as a garnish in this soup.
- If you are looking for more low carb recipes, you can find them here: Low Carb Recipes
- Looking for more recipes? Our Recipe Finder can help you find exactly what you need.
- We use our Ninja Multicooker to make this recipe, however you can use any 6 quart slow cooker.
- Check out all our favorite recommendations for cookbooks, slow cookers and low carb essentials in our Amazon Influencer Shop.
- As with any of our recipes, carb counts, calorie counts and nutritional information varies greatly. As a result, your nutritional content depends on which products you choose to use when cooking this dish. The auto-calculation is just an automated estimate and should NOT be used for specific dietary needs.
- All slow cookers cook differently, so cooking times are always a basic guideline. Recipes should always be tested first in your own slow cooker and time adjusted as needed.

I made this dish tonight and we loved it! I know it’s low carb but I added a few crushed tortilla chips for texture! 😊 We are going to add this to our rotation! Thanks again!
I’m so glad you and your loved ones enjoyed this recipe! It really makes our day to hear that our readers love one of our recipes! Thank you for taking the time to let us know.
So good!! And with this hot weather, a great supper for the crock pot! Your recipes rock!
So glad you enjoyed it, Mary!! Thanks for stopping by and letting us know!!
Ily really enjoyed your Crock Pot Chicken Chili Verde Soup on our regular Tues night Soup Night. Since I didn’t get a pic of mine (yours was prettier anyway) I used your pic & web add in my fb post. Hope that was ok. Everyone really enjoyed it & ate mtpl bowls. Thanks for the low carb recipe.
Hi Carole-
So glad to hear you enjoyed it! It truly is one of our favorites!
As for the photo, we don’t mind if folks use it as long as they don’t write out the recipe on fb but instead give folks a link here to get the recipe. It helps support our site AND it helps your friends discover all our yummy recipes. Thanks so much for asking!
We just made this and wow it is so good. For a quick and easy Chile Verde, this is the one to consider. Give it a try and I am sure you will like it. It doesn’t have alot of real heat to it, but using the fresh peppers give it that Verde flavor you are looking for. And if you like more heat this is were you can turn up the heat. Our family really liked it. Thank you Cris for sharing!
Hi Paul & Wendy!
So glad you guys enjoyed it!!
Question – you say the salsa verde is “divided.” Am I missing what to do with the other half?
Hi Susan-
That was a typo. Originally we divided the salsa in the slow cooker as we layered ingredients but after making it several times we decided it made no real difference. I just forgot to take “divided” off my ingredient list.
WOULD YOU PLEASE POST THE CARB COUNT ON YOU RECIPES?
OR AM I MISING SOMETHING?
Hi LE-
We don’t provide nutritional information because we feel it is incredibly misleading for recipes on the internet. Nutritional information will be different for every home cook because it always will depend on the exact ingredients and products you use. We wrote a post about it a while back and compared products to show how vastly different simply based on different brands of the same ingredients (https://www.recipesthatcrock.com/frequently-asked-questions-nutritional-information/ ).
Since writing that post we began eating Low Carb in our home and readers asked we share the low carb recipes we enjoy at home. When something is marked low carb on the site it is because we make it using low carb ingredients and enjoy it as a part of our low carb lifestyle. At first I tried to share net carbs, but as I began to learn how much products varied in carb counts specifically, I began to be worried that information could be incredibly misleading so I stopped.
I know that is probably not the answer you were hoping for, but after a lot of consideration we have decided to not include it at this time.
