Ingredients

  • 4 frozen chicken breasts
  • 1 packet taco seasoning
  • 1 packet ranch
  • 1/2 tsp cumin
  • 1 can chicken broth
  • 8-10 to rtillas
  • Cilantro chopped
  • Shredded cheese
  • 1 can tomato sauce
  • 1/2 can tomato paste

Instructions

  • Combine the taco seasoning, ranch packet and cumin together in a small bowl until well mixed. Slowly add in the chicken broth and stir until combined.
  • Place the frozen chicken breasts in a crockpot and pour the seasoning you created over the top of the chicken.
  • Cook on low 5 hours.
  • Remove the chicken from the crockpot and shred it. Return to the crockpot for another 45 minutes.
  • Remove the chicken again and set aside.
  • Pour the liquid from the crockpot into a saucepan and add in the can of tomato sauce (you may need less than a full can depending on how much liquid you have left over). Add a 1/2 can of tomato paste to thicken. Stir well and bring to boiling. Remove from heat.
  • Ladle some sauce into a glass baking dish so the bottom of the dish is covered in sauce.
  • Prepare the enchiladas by placing a line of chicken and cheese down the middle of a tortilla. Sprinkle some cilantro on top. Roll up and place in a glass baking dish. Repeat for all enchiladas.
  • Pour the enchilada sauce over the enchiladas until they are well coated. Sprinkle cheese on top and garnish with cilantro.
  • Bake at 350 degrees for 15-20 minutes or until well heated and cheese is melted.
