Start by adding the diced tomatoes, black beans, corn, bell pepper, onion, jalapeno pepper, and tomato paste to the slow cooker. Top with the cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, paprika, cayenne pepper, and salt. Give everything a stir to combine. Add the chicken, making sure it’s submerged in the liquid.
