This Crock Pot Chicken Tomato and Bean Soup is a hearty, satisfying meal made with canned beans, tomatoes, and tender boneless chicken. Easy to prep and full of rich flavor, it's perfect for an easy meal for busy nights.
Place the chicken, beans, diced tomatoes, carrots, garlic, salt, pepper, bay leaves and chicken stock into a 7 quart or larger crock pot.
Slow cook on high for 2-3 hours or until the chicken is cooked through to 165 °F.
Once the chicken is cooked remove from the slow cooker. Let rest for about 5 to 10 minutes then shred or cut into bite size pieces.
Return the chicken to the slow cooker. Stir to combine.
Optional: To slightly thicken the broth add the cornstarch and water to the slow cooker and stir. Cover and cook for an hour longer to reheat the heat and thicken the broth.
Serve over white rice with bread or crackers if desired.
