Ingredients
  

1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut into bite-sized pieces

1 cup of your favorite BBQ sauce

1 can (15 oz) black beans, drained and rinsed

1 can (15 oz) corn, drained

1 medium onion, finely chopped

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 tbsp chili powder

1 tsp smoked paprika

1 tsp ground cumin

Salt and black pepper to taste

1/2 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese

1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped (for garnish)

Optional: sliced jalapeños for garnish

Instructions
 

In a large mixing bowl, combine the bite-sized chicken pieces with the BBQ sauce, black beans, corn, finely chopped onion, minced garlic, chili powder, smoked paprika, cumin, and a generous pinch of salt and black pepper. Stir the mixture thoroughly, ensuring all the chicken and vegetables are well coated in the BBQ sauce.

    Carefully transfer the combined chicken mixture into your Crockpot, spreading it out evenly across the bottom. Ensure the lid is securely placed on the Crockpot to lock in heat and flavors.

      Set your Crockpot to cook on low for 4-6 hours or on high for 2-3 hours. The chicken should be thoroughly cooked and tender by the end of this cooking time, allowing the flavors to meld beautifully.

        About 30 minutes before you are ready to serve, remove the lid and evenly sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the chicken mixture. Replace the lid to allow the cheese to melt perfectly into the dish.

          Once the cooking time is complete, use a spoon to give the mixture a good stir. Taste the dish and adjust the seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed to achieve your desired flavor profile.

            Serve the Spicy BBQ Chicken Bliss Bites warm, garnished with fresh cilantro and sliced jalapeños for an extra kick, if desired. These bites are perfect as an appetizer or a main dish, sure to impress your guests!
