Slow-Cooked Enchilada Dinner image

This layered Southwestern meal just can't be beat. It gets its spicy flavor from green chilies, chili powder and cumin. Using a slow cooker liner inside of the cooker makes it easier to lift and remove the meal so it can be cut into individual wedges. -Judy Ragsdale, Queen City, Texas

These enchiladas were delicious! The chicken was tender and juicy, and the sauce was flavorful and cheesy. I will definitely be making these again.

I've made this recipe several times and it's always a hit. The chicken is always cooked perfectly and the sauce is delicious. I like to add a little bit of sour cream and cheese to the top before serving.

This recipe was easy to follow and the enchiladas turned out great! I used a rotisserie chicken to save time and it worked perfectly. The sauce was flavorful and the cheese melted perfectly. I will definitely be making this again.
