This is one of those recipes that you throw in the crock-pot and forget about it until you get home for dinner. We love lots of Mexican flavor at our house so this chicken is very versatile, use it for burritos, soft tacos or a casserole.
Chicken Enchilada Meat in the Crock-pot
4 to 6 chicken breasts
1 can cream of mushroom soup
4 oz. of cream cheese
1 enchilada seasoning packet
1 cup water
1 can chopped green chilies
Directions:
Step 1: Mix together soup, enchilada mix, chilies and water. Put chicken in crock-pot and pour soup-mixture over the top. Cut cream cheese into chunks and put on top of chicken. Cook on high for 4 hours or low 6-7 hours.
Step 2: When chicken is done take out and shred then put back into sauce. To serve I cook white rice, then we roll up chicken rice, black beans, cheese, cilantro, onions or any other burrito fixings we have.
I love crock pot meals. I need to get more organized and make more of them. It should be so easy to throw a few ingredients in a crock pot in the morning, but somehow I pull it off less frequently than I would like. Thanks for the recipe.
I know what you mean sometimes I'm better at being organized than others.
I am definitely going to try this one! I love to use the crock pot and am always looking for new recipes. My family loves chicken enchiladas so I'm anticipating this being a big hit! Thanks!
Great I hope it's a hit at your house, thanks for checking my blog out.
This looks fabulous! Question: Do you usually drain the green chilies or put the whole can in with liquid?
I put the whole can in without draining. Thanks Jill for stopping by.
I have this cooking in the crock-pot right now and the entire house smells SOOO good! I can't wait to taste it tonight! BTW, I love your blog. I am not sure how I even came across it, but I've been checking in regularly for awhile now. This is the first recipe I've tried, but there are several more from your blog that are now on my "to do" list. Thanks so much for sharing!
Suzanne, this recipe was sooooo good! It was easy to put together, made the whole house smell heavenly and tasted so good that every single person in our family loved it! My 6 year old son said it was the best thing he's ever eaten, my 11 year old daughter ate just as much as my 13 year old son (which was a lot) and my husband could not believe how good it was! I used the rice and black beans and it really added to the richness of the dish. I will certainly make this again and again and again! Thank you so much for sharing this amazing recipe with us!
Yeah! So glad it was hit at your house ;). You are to sweet with the compliments… you made my day twice! Hope you enjoy more of the recipes on my blog. XOXO
