I am busting the crock pot out tomorrow! For some jalapeno chicken breasts!! (recipe courtesy of Better Homes & Gardens)
- 6 boneless skinless chicken breast
- 1 tbl chili powder
- 1/8 tsp salt
- 1/2c reduced sodium chicken broth
- 2 tbl lemon juice
- 1/3c sliced pickled jalapenos (drained)
- 1 tbl cornstarch
- 1 tbl cold water
- 1 8oz pkg reduced fat cream cheese (softened & cubed)
- 2 slices bacon cooked & crumbled (optional)
Arrange chicken at bottom of crock pot & sprinkle with chili powder. Pour lemon juice & chicken broth around chicken & top with drained jalapenos. Cook on low setting for 5-6 hours or high for 2.5-3 hours. Once finished cooking transfer chicken & jalapenos to serving tray & cover to keep warm. Reserve cooking liquid. Mix water & cornstarch in separate bowl & then add to cooking liquid. Mix in cream cheese & whisk together until combined. Cover & cook for 15 minutes or more until thickened. Serve chicken with sauce (& top with crumbled bacon if desired). Yum! Can't wait!!
