One of my favorite things about this crockpot chicken recipe is that it can be made with just six ingredients. That's it! You start out with just four ingredients - chicken, salsa, corn and black beans.
You can cook this 4 hours on high or 8 hours on low.
Once it is cooked, use two forks to shred he chicken. Then stir up all the ingredients.
Add some cheese and cover for a few minutes so it gets all nice and gooey.
This meal is so versatile. You can have it in a burrito or taco or just by itself.
I love serving this with some sliced avocado. I also add a little more salsa to the top and a sprinkle of cheese.
This chicken is so filling, moist and flavorful and it has become our Tuesday night meal. Do you have an evening that is super busy as well? Try this Mexican Crockpot Chicken and take the stress out of dinner.

Nancy, I have never tried to freeze it, but have refrigerated and re-warmed it after a few days.
