This chicken rivals Cafe Rio pork in deliciousness. Just ask Cory, Natalee, or Anthony. It has a sweet taste similar to Cafe Rio's Pork, and you can serve it in a burrito or a salad too. We served it with lime cilantro rice, avocadoes, cheese, lettuce, and creamy lime cilantro dressing, and everyone loved it. A-ma-zing. And chicken is cheaper than pork roast, so this is definitely a win-win meal.
Bajio Chicken Chile Salad
5 chicken breasts (or 4 large ones)
1/2 cup salsa
1 Tbsp cumin
1/2 cup brown sugar (more to taste)
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 cornstarch mixed in water.
Serve with flour tortillas, lettuce, cheese, black beans and any other taco fixings.
If you want it spicier rather than sweeter add a hotter salsa and more green chilies.
