Crock Pot Pollo Con Salsa Verde Recipes

SLOW COOKER SALSA VERDE CHICKEN

Steps:

• Combine the chicken thighs, salsa verde, green chiles, chopped garlic, jalapeño, garlic powder, onion powder and cumin in a 6- to 8-quart slow cooker. Stir to evenly combine. (Don't add salt now; jarred salsas are often high in sodium.) Cook on low until the chicken is tender and the flavors are blended, 5 to 6 hours. (If you will be away for 8 hours or more, set the cook time for 4 hours on low and set the slow cooker auto-switch to warm for the remaining time.)
• Use two forks to coarsely shred the chicken. With the heat on low, add the scallions and cilantro, and stir to combine. Season to taste with salt and lime juice. Serve with rice or in tortillas, if desired, with accompaniments.

• Remove chicken from the pot and keep warm.
• Pour the chicken broth into the pot and scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot.
• Place the green salsa, garlic, jalapeño, cilantro, and cumin into the pot; bring to a boil.
• Just as the sauce begins to boil, reduce the heat to obtain a slow simmer. Add the chicken breasts back into the sauce and spoon sauce over each piece of chicken.
• Continue to cook until chicken is cooked through and tender (about 15 minutes).
• Taste the sauce and add more salt and pepper if desired.
