CROCK POT CHICKEN WITH SPAGHETTI SAUCE RECIPES

Steps:

• Combine chicken broth, beans (drained), corn, tomatoes, cilantro, scallions, garlic powder, onion powder, cumin, cayenne pepper and salt in the crock pot.
• Season chicken breast with salt and lay on top.
• Cook on low for 8 - 10 hours or on high for 4 to 6 hours.
• Thirty minutes before serving, remove chicken and shred.
• Return chicken to slow cooker and stir in. Adjust salt and seasoning to taste.
• Serve over rice or tortillas and with your favorite toppings.
• Instant Pot:

Steps:

• Turn Instant Pot to saute mode and add the ground turkey or ground beef. Cook, crumbling with a spoon, until browned. Turn Instant Pot off.
• Add the Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt, pepper and water. Stir until well combined, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot.
• Break the spaghetti noodles in half and lay them in the pot in about 6 parts, with each part laying in a different direction (this is to prevent the spaghetti from sticking together).
• Pour the marinara sauce over the spaghetti. Do not stir.
• Seal Instant Pot lid and turn the steam valve to the sealing position.
• Cook at high pressure/manual for 5 minutes if using whole wheat spaghetti with a package cook time of 7-9 minutes. Cook at high pressure/manual for 7 minutes if using regular white spaghetti with a package cook time of 9-11 minutes.
• Do a quick release (carefully turn the steam valve to the venting position using the handle of a long spoon and wait for all of the steam to escape and the pin to drop down).
• Remove lid, stir. You will see some liquid in the pot. This will absorb after just a few minutes. Wait for 3-5 minutes and then serve.
