🕒 Prep Time: 10 min | Cook Time: 5 hrs | Total Time: 5 hrs 10 min

🛒 Ingredients:

  • 2–3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (or thighs for a juicier version)
  • 2 cups frozen corn (canned or grilled corn also works)
  • 4 oz cream cheese, cubed
  • 1/3 cup crumbled cotija cheese (or feta as a swap)
  • Juice of 1 lime
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1/2 tsp chili powder

Optional Flavor Boosters:

  • 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • Fresh cilantro (for garnish)

👩‍🍳 Step-by-Step Instructions:

Step 1:
Add chicken breasts to the bottom of your slow cooker. Top with corn, cream cheese, cotija, lime juice, garlic, and chili powder. ✨
🚫 Don’t stir — the cheese will melt perfectly on its own!

Step 2:
Cover and cook on LOW for 4–5 hours or HIGH for 2–3 hours, until the chicken is tender and shreds easily.

Step 3:
Shred chicken directly in the slow cooker using two forks. Stir everything together to create a creamy, cheesy, corn-filled mix. Add a splash of chicken broth or milk if you want it thinner.

Step 4:
Serve your Street Corn Chicken in tacos 🌮, over rice, or even nacho-style with extra cheese and hot sauce. Don’t forget fresh cilantro and lime wedges!

  • Freezer-friendly: Cools well and freezes up to 3 months!
  • Dairy-free version: Use plant-based cream cheese and skip cotija or swap with nutritional yeast.
