Steps:
- 1. Gather ingredients:
- 2. In crock pot, mix together all the ingredients except the chiles and garlic pepper.
- 3. Cover and cook on low setting 4 to 4 1/2 hours, or until the rice is tender and the chicken is white throughout; do not overcook or the rice will be mushy.
- 4. Stir in the green chiles and garlic pepper and serve at once. I edited this recipe to include 2 packets of taco seasoning, enchilada sauce, and season to your own preference. I kept tasting as it was cooking, and added Mexican hot chili powder, cumin, and salt. And I cut the rice from 2 cups to 1 1/2 cups..if you like thick, then use 2 cups. The rice will suck up the liquid, so you may want to add chicken broth, more water, enchilada sauce, salsa, or tomato sauce. After more seasoning, it was delicious!
Tips:
- For a thicker sauce, use less broth or add a cornstarch slurry (equal parts cornstarch and water) towards the end of cooking.
- To make the chicken more flavorful, marinate it in a mixture of lime juice, chili powder, cumin, and garlic for at least 30 minutes before cooking.
- If you don't have a crock pot, you can also make this recipe in a Dutch oven over medium-low heat for 6-8 hours, or until the chicken is cooked through.
- Serve the chicken with your favorite Tex-Mex toppings, such as shredded cheese, sour cream, guacamole, and salsa.
- Leftover chicken can be used in tacos, burritos, enchiladas, or soup.
Conclusion:
This Crock Pot Tex-Mex Chicken is an easy and delicious way to enjoy a classic Tex-Mex meal. The chicken is cooked to perfection in a flavorful sauce, and it's perfect for serving with your favorite toppings. Whether you're looking for a weeknight dinner or a party dish, this recipe is sure to please everyone.
