1 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 1/2 cups prepared enchilada sauce
2 chopped celery stalks
2 (14.5 oz) cans tomatoes with seasoning
2 (15 oz) cans pinto or kidney beans, undrained (or 1 cup dried pinto beans, soaked overnight)
1 onion, diced (or 1 tablespoon dried, minced onion flakes)
1-2 tsp. chili powder
1 tsp. cumin
Pour enchilada sauce and canned tomatoes into the bottom of a 6 quart slow cooker. Add beans, celery, onion and spices. Stir to combine. Place chicken on top.
Cover and cook on low for 7-8 hours, or until flavors have combined. If you are using dried beans, you may need to cook longer to fully soften the beans. Shred chicken.
Serve with shredded cheddar cheese and a dollop of sour cream, if desired.
Review - This was good. I'd never purchased canned enchilada sauce before, so I just bought the cheapest (store brand) can I could find. I think the flavor was too mild and didn't have near enough spice. Next time I'll make sure to buy a better brand of enchilada sauce and taste it to make sure it's got enough kick to it.
