Equipment
Ingredients
- ⅛ cup chicken broth low sodium
- 1 pound chicken breast boneless, skinless
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder
- 2 teaspoons onion powder
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1 teaspoon cumin ground
- ½ teaspoon paprika
- ½ teaspoon oregano
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- ½ cup salsa con queso
Instructions
- Grab a crock pot or slow cooker of course. I use the original crock pot brand and I love using the liners for easy clean up; however, you do not have to. Make sure you grab a meat thermometer too, that can stay in a closed crock.
- Add ⅛ cup of water or chicken broth to the bottom of the crock pot, to keep the chicken moist.
- Place the chicken at the bottom. Sprinkle on the seasonings mixture. Then, top the chicken with the salsa con queso, spreading it out to evenly cover the chicken.
- Place the lid on the crock pot and cook on low for two hours, until chicken is fully cooked.
- Once cooked, shred the chicken. You can do this right in the crock pot or in a separate bowl. Use the shredded chicken for tacos, salads, bowls, or just about anything else!
