Healthy Chicken & Canadian Bacon with Potatoes {Crock pot}
These hot days of summer are crazy hot, and I don't like heating my entire kitchen to cook supper. Slow cooker or crock pot meals are the way to go. They give you time to do things outside or cook while at work.
The onions, bell pepper, and cumin give this dish a nice Mexican taste.
Pair this low-fat meal with a no bake dessert, and you are set! Your main meal all in one place. That's my kind of cooking!!! Only messing up one pot. (I hate washing dishes.)
Healthy Chicken & Canadian Bacon with Potatoes {Crock Pot}
INGREDIENTS:
4 large boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 (28-32 oz.) pkg. frozen potatoes (I used steak fries)
7 slices of Canadian bacon, diced
1 small onion, chopped
1/2 green bell pepper, chopped
2 c. shredded fat-free cheddar cheese
2 slices fat-free pepper jack cheese, torn into small pieces
1 c skim milk
1 c chicken broth (Swanson 100% fat-free, low sodium)
salt & pepper to taste
1-2 tsp. cumin
1-2 tsp. Ms. Dash Garlic & Herb seasoning
1-2 Tbsp. poultry seasoning
garlic powder to taste
sliced mushrooms (optional)
Spray your crock pot with vegetable oil. Place chicken in single layer on bottom of pot. Add seasonings (salt, pepper, cumin, Ms. Dash, garlic powder, and poultry seasoning) on top of chicken.
In this order, layer 1/3 of ingredients on chicken - potatoes, onions, bell peppers, diced bacon, and both cheeses. Repeat the layers of vegetables, bacon and cheeses two more times. Top with mushrooms if desired.
Cook on HIGH for 4-5 hours or on LOW for 6-7 hours.
