Creating Street Corn Chicken Chili can be straightforward if you follow these simple steps:

1. Prepare the Chicken: In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the chicken breasts and season with salt and pepper. Sear for about 5-7 minutes on each side until browned. Remove from the pot and set aside.
2. Sauté Vegetables: In the same pot, add diced onion and garlic. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes until softened and fragrant.
3. Add Spices: Stir in the chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, and cayenne pepper. Cook for an additional minute to toast the spices.
4. Combine Ingredients: Add the corn, black beans, diced tomatoes (with their juice), and chicken broth to the pot. Stir well to combine.
5. Return Chicken: Shred the seared chicken breasts using two forks and return them to the pot. Mix everything together.
6. Simmer: Bring the chili to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Let it simmer for about 30-35 minutes, stirring occasionally.
7. Adjust Seasoning: Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt, pepper, or additional spices as needed.
8. Serve: Remove from heat and let it rest for 10 minutes. This allows the flavors to meld together beautifully.
