A great crock pot recipe that I adapted from Pillsbury.
Ingredients:
1 1/4 lbs boneless skinless chicken thighs
1 (1 1/4 ounce) package taco seasoning mix
1 (4 1/2 ounce) can chopped green chilies, drained
1 (8 ounce) can tomato sauce
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon coriander seed, crushed
1 (19 ounce) can cannellini beans, drained
2 (4 5/8 ounce) packages taco shells
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
1 1/2 cups shredded lettuce
1 (8 ounce) container sour cream
1 cup salsa
Directions:
1. Add chicken thighs to a 4 quart slow cooker.
2. Sprinkle with taco seasoning.
3. Sprinkle chopped chiles on top of chicken.
4. In a bowl, add tomato sauce, cumin, and coriander seed; stir to combine.
5. Pour mixture over the top of the chicken.
6. Top with beans.
7. Cover, cook on LOW for 7 hours.
8. Remove chicken from crock pot and set aside.
9. Mash beans with a potato masher (Doesn't have to be perfectly smooth, we like some chunks of beans).
10. Shred chicken and return to slow cooker; stir to mix well.
11. To assemble taco: spoon about 3 tablespoons of chicken filling into each taco shell; then add 1 tablespoon cheese and lettuce, then add 2 teaspoons sour cream and salsa.
12. Enjoy.
