Categories     Chicken Breast

Time 4h45m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

3 chicken breast halves
2 (14 ounce) cans old el paso enchilada sauce
1 1/2 cups cheese (I use mexican in the bag)
8 flour tortillas

Steps:

  • 1. Start up crock pot, put just 1/4 of a can of enchilada sauce in the pot.
  • 2. Put chicken in, and pour the rest of the first can or enchilada sauce in the pot.
  • 3. Let cook on Low for 7-8 hours or High for 3-4 hours. 1 hour before you want to assemble the enchiladas, take chicken out and shred it.
  • 4. Put chicken back in crock with enchilada sauce and let simmer for about 30-60 minutes. (You don't have to do this, but it makes the chicken more flavorful because you are getting the sauce all over the chicken).
  • 5. Pre-heat oven to 350. Pull out a 9X13 pan to put the enchildadas inches Pour enchilada sauce, just enough to coat the bottom of the pan.
  • 6. Start assembling the enchiladas by scooping up some chicken and putting in the tortillas, topped with cheese.
  • 7. Roll the filled tortillas and put in to the 9X13. Keeping doing this until the chicken is all gone or the pan is filled. ( I squish a lot of enchiladas in one pan).
  • 8. Pour remaining enchilada sauce on top and top with remaining cheese.
  • 9. Put in to preheated oven for 20 minutes. Just enough to warm all the way through.

Tips:

  • Mise en place: Before starting, ensure all ingredients are prepped and measured. This makes the cooking process smoother and more efficient.
  • Use a quality slow cooker: A reliable slow cooker is essential for achieving tender and flavorful enchilada filling. Look for one with adjustable temperature settings and a locking lid.
  • Sear the chicken: Searing the chicken before adding it to the slow cooker adds depth of flavor and prevents it from becoming dry. You can do this in a skillet over medium-high heat for a few minutes per side.
  • Use a variety of spices: The blend of spices in this recipe creates a complex and authentic Mexican flavor. Adjust the amount of chili powder, cumin, and oregano to your taste preferences.
  • Don't overcook the chicken: Overcooked chicken becomes dry and tough. Aim for an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) for properly cooked chicken.
  • Serve immediately: Enchilada filling is best served fresh out of the slow cooker. If you need to make it ahead of time, store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months.

Conclusion:

This Crock-Pot Mexican Chicken Enchilada Filling recipe offers a convenient and flavorful way to prepare a classic Mexican dish. With tender chicken, a medley of spices, and the convenience of a slow cooker, it's an easy and satisfying meal for any occasion.
