CHICKEN CHILE VERDE
During culinary school I worked at a Mexican restaurant in Saranac Lake, NY, called Casa Del Sol. My favorite dish was the Chile Verde. In this version I simmer large chunks of chicken slowly in an exotic green sauce of tomatillos and chilies.

SLOW-COOKER GREEN CHICKEN CHILI
This easy, slow-cooked chili is not your average "bowl of red." With chicken, sweet potatoes, tomatillo salsa, and pinto beans, it's more of a cross between chile verde (usually made with pork) and white chicken chili. Just a few ingredients and effortless prep gives you a flavorful and satisfying "bowl of green."

Steps:
- Toss everything but the rice into the crock pot. You can use fresh chicken breasts, but frozen are easier to keep stocked.
- Cook on low 8 hours or high for 4.
- Quickly shred chicken with two forks (or don't.) Serve over rice.
- Prep the chicken ahead of time: If you're short on time, you can marinate the chicken overnight or for at least 30 minutes before cooking. This will help the chicken absorb the flavors of the marinade and make it more tender.
- Use a variety of chiles: Feel free to experiment with different types of chiles, such as Anaheim, poblano, or serrano peppers. Just be sure to adjust the amount of chiles you use depending on how spicy you want the dish to be.
- Don't overcrowd the slow cooker: Make sure there is enough space in the slow cooker for the chicken and the other ingredients to cook evenly. If the slow cooker is too crowded, the chicken will not cook properly.
- Cook on low for best results: Cooking the chicken on low for 6-8 hours will help the meat become fall-off-the-bone tender. If you're short on time, you can cook the chicken on high for 3-4 hours, but the meat may not be as tender.
- Shred the chicken before serving: Once the chicken is cooked, shred it with two forks. This will make it easier to eat and will help the chicken absorb the flavors of the sauce.
