Steps:

• Add everything to the Crock Pot (no need to thaw the chicken) and stir until well-blended.
• Cook on low for 4-5 hours, stirring occasionally.
• After about 4 hours, I usually fish the chicken out and shred it with a fork because it's easier to eat over pasta that way, and then I let it cook another hour or so.
• Serve over pasta or rice for a tasty, simple meal.
