Easy Slow Cooker Enchilada Chicken

Easy Slow Cooker Enchilada Chicken is a dump and go grain-free slow cooker recipe that tastes like chicken enchiladas without the tortillas!

HOORAY FOR SLOW COOKER SEASON.

Since fall also happens to be a very busy season at work, there’s nothing better than “set it and forget it” slow cooker recipes. It’s so easy during busy weeks to throw the ingredients in my slow cooker at night before bed, then divide it into containers in the morning for lunches all week.

This Easy Slow Cooker Enchilada Chicken is definitely one that will go into the rotation.

All you have to do is dump the ingredients in your slow cooker and let the magic happen!

I like using hot enchilada sauce to give the chicken some spice, but if you’re cooking for kids I’d recommend using mild and adding spice via hot sauce when it’s served.

I serve the chicken as-is to keep it grain-free, but you can also serve it over rice or quinoa, or wrap it in a whole wheat tortilla.

Since the ingredients release their moisture while they cook in the slow cooker and don’t evaporate, this dish turns into more of a soup. You can choose to eat it with a spoon, or strain the ingredients out of the sauce.
