I took pictures of this one but they seem to have been taken off the camera. I will ask my husband when he's home if they are on his computer and then I will post them.
Actual Recipe:
1 lb boneless chicken thighs
1 can green chiles
1 can pinto beans
1 pkg taco seasoning (1/4 cup if you buy it in the big containers)
Cook in slow cooker on low for 6-8 hours. Meat will shred with a fork. Wrap in tortillas to eat. Top with sour cream, cheese, salsa.
My Changes:
I only used 1/2 can green chiles and 3/4 pkg taco seasoning so that it wouldn't have too much spice for my little boys. We just ate it burrito style (I'm not a sour cream fan so we didn't use that).
Our Opinion:
We love this tasty chicken! Even though chicken thighs seem to have more fat to cut off them before using it (I can't cook with that stuff still on the chicken), IT SHREDS SO EASILY!!!! 5-10 times easier than chicken breasts. You could use breasts if that is all you have, but I will occasionally be buying the thighs for nice shredding recipes as this one.
Left Overs:
There were just enough left overs for the next night to be turned into Chicken Enchiladas. They were so good with this flavored chicken rather than just plain chicken. SO GOOD!!! I didn't take a picture of these but it was definitely a great idea I had and hope to do it again.
Nice job with all of this. I love that you make and then comment on the recipes :).
