It's summertime and I don't know about you guys, but I HATE turning on the oven in the afternoons. Anyone have any good crockpot chicken recipes they'd recommend? Thanks!! :smiley:

    Maybe not the healthiest BUT delicious and I'm sure there's a way to "skinny" it up:

    1 - 8 oz. pkg cream cheese

    1 lb. chicken breast

    1 can corn

    1 can black beans

    1 can Rotel diced tomatoes/jalepenos

    1 container sour cream

    Low for 8 hours, and bam. Delish and perfect as a dip at parties also.

    I find bone in turns out best in crock pot. boneless just turns into a dry nasty mess, at least in my crock pots- they run so hot(even on low, and keep warm). One of my favorites is bone in chicken thighs and a great marinara sauce. cook together on low, about 3-4 hours honestly(again, at least my brand of crock pot cooks that fast).

    skinnytaste.com has several chicken recipes, as well as many pork, turkey and beef crock pot recipes.

    I love this slow cooker chicken cacciatore with mushrooms. I even made it yesterday and now have 8 portioned lunches in my freezer.
