Talk about easy to make and SO Low-Fat since you use no oil! I was able to be home while this cooked so I set it on high. I cooked the meat and spices on high for 2 hours, stirring every half hour. I did not use any broth at all. After 2 hours I added the onions and red, green and yellow peppers. Continuing to cook on high, it took less then two hours for the veggies to cook. I will use this recipe again, than you for posting. Made for Please Review My Recipe game 2010

Made for Potluck Tag. The flavor these were good, however, the chicken was a little watery. I liked the convenience of letting the crock pot do the work. Will make these again with less liquid the next time. Thanks for posting this WeekendCooker!

I made this with 2 large b/s chicken breasts and it was the perfect amount for DH and I (with lunch leftovers for DH). The chicken was tender, juicy and not too spicy. The onions and peppers on top of the chicken was perfect; they didn't cook in the juices and get all mushy. Served with diced tomatoes, sour cream, salsa and shredded cheese. Made for PRMR.

Very easy and good - but my chicken was a bit watery from the crockpot - maybe I cooked it too long! Thanks for sharing!

This was excellent! So easy in the crock pot. My hubby and 6 year old loved it. When a child loves the food you know its good!
