Salsa Chicken Slow Cooker Recipe Recipe - Food.com image

so good! and so easy! my boyfriend and I seriously make this 2 days in a row so that we have a big pot of it. You can make it into a sandwich, or eat it with tortilla chips for a party, or you can put it over rice and enjoy it that way! This recipe came from a friend, she got it from a recipe book at the dollar store, I would have thought it would already be on here, but nope. So I figured I'd let you all enjoy it as much as we do :)

Total Time 8 hours 10 minutes

Prep Time 10 minutes

Cook Time 8 hours

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 3

3 -4 chicken breasts
1 (1 1/4 ounce) packet taco seasoning
2 cups salsa

Steps:

  • -Lightly spray the inside of the slow cooker with PAM.
  • -Place the chicken breasts in the slow cooker
  • -Cover the chicken with the packet of taco seasoning.
  • -Pour the salsa on top, and smooth it out so it covers everything.
  • -Cover and cook 8 hours on low.
  • ***Be sure not to remove the lid at anytime, as if you do you will need to add 30 mins to cooking time. (not worth it :) )***.
  • -When chicken is done, take 2 forks and shred the chicken and the salsa will absorb into it (also the salsa will not taste like salsa anymore, it reduces to more of a juicy sauce instead of chunky).
  • -Serve anyway you'd like :) with rice, with tortilla chips, in a torpedo roll, or any other way you can think of!. its delicious all ways!

SLOW COOKER SALSA VERDE CHICKEN RECIPE - NYT COOKING
This spicy, saucy chicken takes almost no time to prep in the morning and only 5 minutes to finish before eating. At its simplest, the recipe is a meal-in-a-bowl stew, and the toppings are key to making it feel special. You could serve the chicken over rice or a whole grain, or use it as a taco or enchilada filling (use a slotted spoon to serve the chicken, if it is very saucy). You can also add 1 cup of frozen or fresh corn, or a drained 15-ounce can of black beans or pinto beans; just add them at the end along with the fresh cilantro and scallions. The level of heat in jarred salsas can vary, so taste yours first to ensure it is to your liking. If you want more spice, leave some of the jalapeño seeds in, or use hot canned green chiles instead of mild ones.
