Ingredients
- 1 can (10 ounces) red enchilada sauce*
- 1 can (14.5 ounces) petite diced tomatoes with green chilis**
- 1 can (15 ounces) chili beans in mild chili sauce
- 1 can (15 ounces) black beans drained and rinsed
- 1 can (15 ounces) corn drained
- 1 and 1/2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts ~2-3 large breasts
- 2 cups chicken stock or chicken broth
- 1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese very soft
Seasonings
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
- 3/4 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon seasoned salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 1 and 1/2 tablespoons chili powder
- Toppings: sour cream, freshly grated cheddar cheese, avocado, fresh lime, and fresh cilantr
Instructions
-
In a large crockpot (I use a 6 quart crockpot), add in the enchilada sauce, undrained tomatoes, undrained chili beans, drained and rinsed black beans, drained corn, and uncooked chicken breasts.
-
I like to cut each chicken breasts into 2-3 pieces after removing the fat only if I'm cooking this on high (cooks faster/more evenly in my crockpot).
-
Add in the chicken stock and all of the seasonings. Stir well.
-
Cover and place on high for 3-5 hours (or until chicken will easily shred) or low for 5-8 hours (again, until chicken will shred easily)
-
Remove the chicken from the crockpot and shred in another bowl using two forks.
-
Meanwhile, cube the cream cheese into small cubes (it should be very softened -- melt in microwave) and put them in the crockpot. Stir well and cover. Change temperature to high. Let it sit for a few minutes and then using a large whisk, briskly whisk the cream cheese to melt.
-
Add the shredded chicken back into the crockpot. Stir and cover. Cook on high until all the cream cheese is completely melted. Stir.
-
Serve with sour cream, cheddar cheese, avocado, and fresh cilantro as desired. If you only do one topping, to me, cheddar cheese is a MUST!
