Sweet And Spicy Crock Pot Chicken Recipes

Steps:

• Arrange the chicken breasts in the bottom of a slow cooker, and pour in the salsa and tomato sauce. Add the garlic and onion, and sprinkle in the cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Set the cooker on Low, and cook until the chicken is very tender, 4 to 5 hours. Shred the chicken with two forks for serving.

Steps:

• Heat oil in skillet.
• Add chicken and brown on all sides.
• While chicken is browning, make sauce by combining garlic, brown sugar, soy sauce, chicken broth, lemon juice, and cayenne in a mixing bowl.
• Remove browned chicken from skillet and season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Place chicken into crock pot and cover with sauce.
• Cover and cook on low for 4-8 hours or until chicken is done, depending on your crock pot.
• Remove chicken from crock pot and turn crock pot to High.
• Mix corn starch and water thoroughly together, then add to crock pot liquid.
• Place cover on crock pot so that the lid is slightly ajar.
• Cook until sauce thickens, about 20-30 minutes.
• Return chicken to crock pot to coat, then serve either alone or over a bed of rice and topped with sauce.

Steps:

• In a large zip-top bag, combine cumin, cinnamon, 3/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper; add chicken and toss to coat. In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high. Cook chicken, skin side down, until golden, about 4 minutes; flip and cook 2 minutes.
• In a 5-to-6-quart slow cooker, place onion, garlic, and ginger. Add chicken, skin side up, then top with tomatoes and their liquid and raisins. Cover and cook on high until chicken is tender, 3 1/2 hours (or 6 hours on low).
