    Chicken Chili

    24 oz. boneless, skinless chicken breasts
    16 oz. salsa (I used Harry & David Black Bean and Corn Salsa)
    15 oz. pinto beans, drained (black beans would be good, too)
    15 oz. whole kernel corn, drained
    2 1/2 tsp. garlic powder
    1 1/2 tsp. ground cumin
    1 1/2 tsp. chili powder
    1 tsp. parsley flakes
    1-1 1/2 C. hot water
    Salt and pepper, optional
    1/2 tsp. hot pepper sauce, optional

    Place the chicken breasts, trimmed of all fat, in a 4-5 quart crockpot. Add remaining ingredients except water, salt, pepper and hot pepper sauce, combining gently. Cover and cook 6-8 hours on low, or 4 hours on high. Remove chicken and shred. Return to crockpot and add water, a bit at a time, until the preferred consistency. (I used all the water, but then my salsa was spicy and I like my chili "juicy." If necessary season with salt and pepper and hot sauce. Cook another 15-30 minutes. Makes 4 hearty servings, about 2 cups each. Another option, not figured into the nutrition below--add a dollop of light sour cream to each serving. It was yum.

    Nutrition: cal: 314, carb: 40, fat: 6, protein: 42, sodium: 1797, fiber: 12
    (Sodium is high from the salsa, but if you use no-salt-added beans and corn and don't season with the salt, there's a significant difference. I had to use what was on hand and didn't add salt to recipe and it was very flavorful.)
