Mexican Chicken Recipe

This is a great Mexican chicken recipe that is very simple to make & fairly healthy over a bed of lettuce. It is also really good on top of some Frito chips (but not quite as healthy) & it makes great leftovers!

Prep Time: 5 min. Cook Time: 6 hrs. Total Time: 6 hrs. 5 min.

Ingredients: Recipe Makes 4 Servings • etc. 3 small boneless skinless chicken breasts, frozen (or 2 large) • salt & pepper • 1/4 teaspoon onion powder • 1 (10 ounce) can red enchilada sauce • 1 (10 1/2 ounce) can condensed cheddar cheese soup, undiluted • 1 (15 ounce) can black beans, drained but not rinsed • 1/2-1 tablespoon chili powder (depends on how spicy you like it) • 2 ounces cream cheese, softened • Tortilla chips (or lettuce to make healthy)

Directions: 1. Place chicken in a large crock-pot then sprinkle with salt & pepper. Pour the enchilada sauce over the chicken then cover & cook on low for 4 hours. 2. Remove the chicken & shred. Whisk in the cheese soup until smooth then add the chicken, beans, & chili powder. 3. Continue to cook for another 2 hours. During the last 30 minutes add the cream cheese, stir to melt. 4. Serve with chips or tortillas; also fantastic & healthier on a bed of lettuce.
