This is one of my favorite crock recipes because it requires zero prep time (no chopping, measuring, sautéing) and its so delicious! Thanks ladies!

This was amazing…I will definitely be making this again. Did anyone try 1/3 fat cream cheese? Just wondering how that would taste?
Amy
Thanks Audra B.!

Amy,
You will probably still want to use the same cooking time, but maybe the 4 hours instead of the 6 hours. Just check to make sure the chicken is cooked all of the way through.

I am very new…as in this could be my first attempt…at using a crock pot. This recipe sounds yummy but I would like to cut it in 1/2. Does that affect the cooking time? Sorry, if that is a dumb question but as I stated “newbie!”.

Family Loves this and I cook so many different things they never really request a certain dish but this dish they remembered and asked for. Can’t go wrong with this one.

I used nonfat Greek yogurt instead of cream cheese.
Keli
Good but a bit spicy. Will you mild salsa next time.

Nicole,
You could use non fat cream cheese or maybe just make a rue and add it at the last minute to thicken it up.

Made this last night – my first Crockin’ Girls recipe! I only used one package of cream cheese and then added some shredded mexican cheese and served it over mexican rice. My husband loved it! I am excited to have it leftover today – I think it will taste better. Great and easy recipe!
Nicole
Is there an alternative for the cream cheese. I want to make this a bit healthier……?

I made this today, my first crockin’ recipe, YUM! I made this in the Crock-Pot SCVT650-PS 6-1/2-Quart Programmable Touchscreen Slow Cooker. I decided to cook on low for 10 – 10.5 hours instead of on high because I was at work all day. I used 2 packets of tenderloins from costco instead of full breasts as thats what i had on hand. The chicken was super moist after 10 hours and the house smelled delicious! I did make add some chili powder, pepper and some cayenne pepper and salt to give it a little more flavor. I will use a spicier salsa next time as well ( I put a medium spiced salsa in) as we like a little more kick. This will definitely be a go to for an easy meal! It was crock tastic!

Lee Ann…You can make this with chicken that is not frozen, but you would have to take a couple of hours off of the cook time.

Can this be prepared with chicken that isn’t frozen?

We call this “not for company” because it tastes amazing but does not look pretty! We serve it over rice… yum!
