Slow Cooker Santa Fe Chicken


Slow Cooker Santa Fe Chicken

Both my husband and I have very hectic work week schedules so I like to prepare as much as I can on the weekends. One of my favorite kitchen appliances is the Slow Cooker. I love how I can just throw everything in and let it cook while I go about my day. Who wouldn't like that?!?

One of our favorite recipes is Santa Fe Chicken. You can do so much with this recipe. You can serve it over brown rice with a salad and steamed veggies, grill up some onions and peppers and make fajitas, roll it up and make enchilladas. The possibilities are endless!!

Ingredients
• 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 1 cup black beans
• 1 cup corn kernels (fresh or frozen)
• 1 small jar salsa (your favorite variety)
• 1 Tbsp cumin
• 1 Tbsp chili powder
• 2 cups cooked brown rice
* To make a creamier version, add ½ cup plain Greek yogurt the last 30 minutes of cooking.
Preparation

Add to slow cooker: chicken breast, beans, corn, salsa, cumin and chili powder. Mix and cook on low 8 to 10 hours. 

ENJOY!!
