For a richer flavor, consider searing the chicken breasts in a skillet before adding them to the slow cooker. Adjust the amount of chili powder to your preference for spiciness. If you don't have fresh cilantro, you can substitute 1 teaspoon of dried cilantro. To make this soup even heartier, add a can of black beans or pinto beans. This soup is even better the next day, as the flavors have more time to meld together.
