Bajio Chicken

I found this on Jack and Jills kitchen and she has a great picture of it on her blog! It turned out really yummy and my kids loved it too!! Even better is, You make it in your crock pot!!
Bajio Chicken
  • 5 chicken breasts (I did only 3 for my family)
  • 1/2 cup salsa
  • 1 tbsp cumin
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar (more to taste, she added at least an extra 1/8 cup)
  • 1 (4 oz) can diced green chilies
  • 6 oz Sprite (1/2 can)

Combine all ingredients in a crock pot. Cook on low for 5-6 hours. Remove chicken and shred. Return to crock pot and cook 1 more hour. Thicken the juices with a little corn starch mixed in water. Serve with flour tortillas, lettuce, cheese, black beans, rice and nay other taco fixings.

If you want it spicier rather than sweeter add a hotter salsa and more green chilies. She has a pico de gallo recipe on her site with this one too!
