How I Made Chicken Crockpot

A friend of us visited us from the United States after a long time and we thoroughly enjoyed his visit as he is a very jovial, fun loving, and witty person. We being pure vegetarians served him only pure vegetarian stuff for breakfast, lunch and dinner. In short, we made him eat everything vegetarian other than grass! Out of the blue, he desired to eat Chinese food and we made up our minds to go to a renowned Chinese eatery. There again, we ordered vegetarian food and our dear friend wanted to eat chicken.

He ordered something he liked from the menu which we did not know anything about. When the item came, he ate it with great relish (may be because we had subjected him to only vegetarian items for so many days). Then he ordered one more plate and polished it off in no time! Having gone to the manager to try and ask for the recipe, he was promptly denied, as the recipe was a trade secret. Then, after much coaxing, cajoling and promise of confidentiality, our guest elicited his chinese chicken recipes. We vociferously warned him to try his recipe after he went back to United States!

For a painless, no hassle meal, crockpot chicken meals are definitely the way to go. Wake up in the morning, (brush your teeth first nobody likes stinky breath) place the desired seasonings and vegetables in the crockpot, add some chicken stock and a quartered chicken, and place the crockpot on the low setting. Let the slow cooking magic of the crockpot take over. By the time you return home from work, a glorious smell will be permeating through the entire house. Tired and famished from a hard day at work, dinner will be a snap when you choose something from your arsenal of crockpot chicken recipes.

Guaranteed, the chicken inside of the pot will not be dry. It will be so soft and moist, that it will be quite literally falling off of the bones. Crockpot chicken is a great choice for any family. A large crockpot can even allow a family to cook once and eat for days. Since I grew up in New York I didn't eat much Mexican food but I made up for it on my first vacation to California. That was when I was in my mid-20s. I fell in love with the taste of the authentic rice and bean dishes, the tacos, burritos and other traditional favorites.

I knew that I wanted to learn to make all of this wonderful Mexican food when I returned home. My only issue with the food, however, was most recipes used pork and beef, and Im not a big fan of either meat. So in addition to collecting recipes for rice and bean dishes, I set out to find at least one mexican recipe that I could learn to prepared in the traditional way once I returned to the big city. It is very simple, any pork or beef recipe can be made with chicken and/or veggies.

I have now been making Mexican dishes for many years, and my absolute favorite is chicken enchiladas with a jalapen sause that is very creamy. Its wonderful, and whenever I serve it to family and friend, they always want the recipe. If you end up at my house for supper some time, I guarantee that you will find this recipe being served!
