Kickin' Creamy Chicken Stew in a Slow Cooker image

For this recipe I use frozen chicken tenders or chicken breasts (yes, frozen) in my slow cooker. This is a good recipe to substitute beans, veggies, etc. and make it the way you want. This will make 10 "healthy" servings (thats 1/2 a chicken breast) so judge your servings on your families appitite.

Time 4h5m

Yield 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

5 frozen skinless chicken breasts or 20 frozen chicken tenders
1 (16 ounce) jar salsa verde
1 (18 ounce) can black beans
1 cup frozen sweet corn
1 (14 ounce) can diced tomatoes
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 (3 ounce) package reduced-fat cream cheese

Steps:

  • Place frozen chicken breasts or tenders in bottom of slow cooker.
  • Add remaining ingredients except cream cheese.
  • Cook on high for 4-5 hours (less if chicken isn't frozen).
  • At this point I remove about 1/2 the liquid because I like my sauce thick, like a stew.
  • You can leave all the liquid if you want a soup.
  • Add cream cheese, cook on warm setting for 30 minutes, then stir.
  • This can be served over rice or wrapped in flour tortillas.
  • One healthy serving is 1/2 a breast or 2 large chicken tenders.
