crock pot: Chicken Azteca
I've got a crockpot cookbook and like making different things. some of it's so-so but everynow and then i hit a jewel. this is a good one.
2 cups frozen corn
1 can (15 oz) black beans, rinsed and drained
1 cup chunky salsa, divided
1 clove garlic, minced
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
1 package (8oz) cream cheese, cubed
Hot cooked rice
Shredded Cheddar cheese
1. Combine corn, beans, 1/2 cup salsa, garlic and cumin in slow cooker. Arrange chicken breasts over top; pour remaining 1/2 cup salsa over chicken. Cover. Cook on HIGH 2-3 hours or on LOW 4-6 hours or until chicken is tender.
2. Remove chicken; cut into bite-size pieces. Return chicken to slow cooker; add cream cheese. Cook on HIGH until cream cheese melts and blends into sauce.
3. Spoon chicken and sauce over rice. Top with Cheddar Cheese.
Surprisingly good stuff!
