Crock Pot Mexican Chicken and Spanish Rice image

My husband was out of town and I wanted mexican food. So I decided to experiment. I have made this several times since and it has been a big hit with everyone. I have sherred or sliced the chicken and mixed with the rice. The chicken is also good as chicken tacos. I just recently used the chicken to make enchiladas and served the rice on the side. I have plans to try this same recipe with beef.

Time 5h5m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

3 -4 boneless skinless chicken breasts (frozen or thawed)
1 cup water
1/4 cup taco seasoning
0.5 (15 1/2 ounce) jar salsa
2 cups instant rice

Steps:

  • Place chicken in to crock pot. Mix water, taco seasoning, and salsa (I use half the jar) together. Pour onto chicken. Set crock pot to low and let it cook for 3 to 4 hours.
  • After chicken is done remove and put rice in leftover liquid. While rice is cooking shredded or slice chicken.
  • Once rice is done (about 10 to 20, depending on how cooked you like your rice) mix chicken in or serve as taco or make enchiladas with the chicken.

This recipe is a keeper! The chicken was so tender and juicy, and the Spanish rice was flavorful and fluffy. I loved that I could just throw everything in the crock pot and let it cook all day.
