Nicole's Notes:

I love chili, chicken, and tacos! So when i found this recipe i was instantly curious! Even better it is a healthier version with less calories and 5 weight watchers points on the Points Plus program!

 

Directions

1
Add first nine ingredients to a crock pot.
2
Top with chicken, cover and cook on the low setting for about 10 hours. (Can also shorten the cook time by using the HIGH setting and cooking for 6 hours.)
3
A half hour before serving, remove chicken and shred. It's then ready to return to stir back in with the other ingredients.
4
Top with your goodies of choice - We like fresh cilantro.

Nicole, thanks for posting this. It's in the crockpot now. The only modifications I made were to ad a 12oz. bag of sw frozen corn, 1 ounce seemed like too small of an amount and I wasen't sure if that was a typo. And I added a can of diced green chili's. Your recipe didn't state weather to drain the beans or not, so I did to be on the safe side and figure I can add more liquid later if needed. I just wish I had some cornbread to go with it, can't wait for dinner tonight.

You do not have to drain the liquid from the beans. i leave it in. And it is a 12oz bag of frozen corn! I've fixed the typo!

Found this recipe this morning, threw all the ingredients in my slow cooker, and had it for dinner. It was wonderful and my husband, who likes anything spicy, really liked it, too! I didn't have tomato sauce so I substituted tomato paste with a little water to clean out the can and it worked just as well. Also, when I served it, I added the chopped fresh cilantro but also sprinkled grated taco cheese and a dollop of sour cream. Yes, that added a few more calories but the extra flavors were worth it. This recipe is definitely a keeper and I will make it again!
