Salsa Verde Crock Pot Chicken

IMG_20151129_171955803This is absolutely one of my favorites. You can’t get much easier than this recipe. Not only is it easy and good, but it is HEALTHY and goes a long way.

This recipe was shared in a private Facebook group while I was coaching an outstanding group doing my 21 day No Added Sugar Challenge. I added a little twist on the original recipe to kick it up a notch.

Salsa Verde Crock Pot Chicken

-5-6 Chicken Breast

-2 tsp cumin

-1 tsp black pepper

-1 tsp garlic powder

-1 Jar of Salsa Verde (read your ingredients and make sure it is all good and healthy ingredients)

-Frank’s Hot Sauce (to your liking) I add about 1 Tablespoon. If you don’t like a little kick then add 1/2 Tablespoon.

Add chicken to crock pot and sprinkle with seasonings and Frank’s Hot Sauce. Pour Salsa on top. Cook on low 6-7 hours or high about 3. Shred chicken when done. It may be a little watery, depending on the brand of salsa you use. If so, just spoon out some of the water. No biggie!

Serve over brown rice, quinoa, spinach salad (my favorite way) or in a corn tortilla. Top with some cilantro and fresh avocado. Bam! Dinner is served.

You should have left overs depending on how many you are feeding. I eat on this for about 3 days. This is a great recipe to plan to fix when you know your week is going to be a busy one. (Remember that planning and preparing to help you stay on track😊)

Let me know if you try it!

Much Love,

Jennie B
