Bean and Chicken Crockpot Tacos

By , About.com Guide

I love the creamy texture and rich taste of cannellini beans. Together with shredded chicken and lots of spicy seasonings, this chicken taco filling is fabulous.

Prep Time: 15 minutes

Cook Time: 8 hours

Ingredients:

  • 1-1/2 lbs. boneless, skinless chicken thighs
  • 1 envelope OR 2 Tbsp. taco seasoning mix
  • 4-oz. can chopped green chilies, undrained
  • 8-oz. can tomato sauce with garlic
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 1 tbsp. chili powder
  • 18-oz. can cannellini beans, drained
  • 24 taco shells
  • shredded cheese, lettuce, sour cream, salsa

Preparation:

In 3-4 quart crockpot, place chicken thighs and sprinkle with taco seasoning mix. Top with chilies, tomato sauce, onion, chili powder, and drained beans. Cover and cook on low for 8 hours.

Remove chicken from crockpot and shred with two forks. Using potato masher, mash some of the beans in the crockpot. Return chicken to crockpot and mix well to blend.

Make tacos with chicken filing, taco shells, and toppings. 12 servings
