Crockpot Low Carb Green Chili Chicken

 

Low carb green chili chicken

 For dinner tonight I made this green chili chicken in the crockpot it was pretty good.  I cooked mine in the crockpot on high for 4 hours and it came out very tender and flavorful.  I did eat mine with a generous sprinkling of tapatio and that made it even better.  This recipe only takes 5 ingredients, and you can have it all mixed and cooking in under 5 minutes, and let the slow cooker do all the work.

 Directions

Place frozen chicken breast in bottom of Crockpot. Mix sour cream, fajita seasoning, and green chilies together. Spread mixture over the chicken and cook on low 6-8 hours or high for 4 hours or until done, every slow cooker cooks different. Sprinkle 1 oz. of cheese over each piece of chicken.  Optional to garnish with cilantro and a sprinkle of tapatio.
