SC - CHEESY JALAPENO CHICKEN BURRITOS



SC - Cheesy Jalapeno Chicken Burritos image

Time on High: Cooks on LOW Time on Low: 4 to 5 Hours This dish was inspired by a recent experience I had at a Mexican restaurant in the Phoenix, AZ area. I fell in love with a cheesy jalapeno dipping sauce and I knew I had to recreate at home in my Crock-Pot® slow cooker! This recipe has become a frequently requested dish at my home. I hope your family loves it too!

I made this recipe up by taking some chicken and some basic Mexican spices and throwing them all together for burrito night. It turned out great so we have them frequently.

  • Simmer on high for 5 hours.
  • Remove chicken from crockpot and shred with two forks; and place back into crock pot.
  • Place sliced red and green pepper into crock pot, cover and cook another 30 minutes (we still like to have a little crispness to our peppers so if you want them softer cook longer)

  • Fold burrito up 2/3 of the way to the other side over the chicken mixture. Fold sides in towards the center.
