      mmmm this was soooo good!!! I made this for the super bowl and put it on some nachos and they were to die for! Only cooked it for about 6 hours and the chicken just fell apart... using the leftovers on tacos tomorrow night, cant wait!

      This was delicious in the enchiladas I made! I had to eliminate the peppers because we have a toddler, but it was still great flavour!! Only had to cook for 5 hours on low. Used 2 lg chicken breast, 1.5 cups salsa, and 3 cloves of garlic and 1 tbsp of my homemade taco seasoning.

      I HIGHLY recommend this recipe! It's so very easy and turns out great! After the chicken is done cooking, I take it out and shred it. I reserve some of the juice and use it to make rice. Put the shredded chicken in the rest of the juice to finish cooking. Now you have flavorful chicken that you can put in enchiladas, tamales, quesadillas, on top of Mexican pizza, or whatever else you might need! Such a versatile recipe! Thanks for sharing!

      This is so awesome. We made a ton and I think it is all we ate for 3 days which was fine with us. If you make this, don't forget to add the following to the burritos after they are done: sour cream, shredded cheddar cheese, chopped tomatoes, Mexican rice, shredded lettuce, and refried beans. Delicious!

      Every couple months I get to cook for about 10-15 guys... this recipe by far has been the easiest prep and one of the best tasting meals that I've cooked in bulk. Thanks for sharing - 5 stars!

      5 stars! Technically I "kinda" made to recipe. I DID NOT add anything new/diferent but it was made for a party and the salsa I happened to use was rather "hot" for a crowd so I did not add the peppers. Also the cloves of garlic I used were large cloves so I added only 3. In my crockpot, the chicken could be shredded after 4 hours on low but I shredded it and just let it marinate in the juices for a couple of hours then reheated it prior to the party. Wonderful, excellent recipe. One just needs to have some common sense regarding "making it to your preference" and knowledge of your crockpot. Thanks!

      This recipe is one of those rare finds that combine ease, taste on-hand ingredients, and many use possibilities. I plan to double the recipe next time and freeze in dinner portions. Awesome served on cheese hoagies with lots of Mexican condiments. Yum! Thank you ever so much for posting this KEEPER!

      This is really good and easy! My freezer and fridge went so I've been a cooking machine. I used 6 chicken breasts and I always have jalapenos so that's what I used (all the seeds included). I set my pot for 10 hours and checked it at 5 hours. It was way done, already falling apart. I shredded it and added ck broth to be sure it would soak up nicely. I saved some of this and froze most of it. I threw some of this on a tortilla with cheese for a quick lunch. Very flavorful without adding any other condiments!

      This was very good although I will cut the cooking time to maybe 7hrs. when I make it again. It was a little burnt by the the time I got home. Thank you Denver chef!

      This is amazing! One of the best recipes I have tried from here! Hubby & I both really loved it. It was so quick and simple to make, but came out as a falvour packed, impressive dish. We served it with rice last night, and will be using it to make Leftover Chicken Enchiladas for dinner tonight. Great recipe, and one we will be using a lot!

      This was incredibly easy and had great flavor. There's only two people in my house, so I judge a crock pot recipe by how much is left to freeze after we get tired of eating the same thing - there was nothing left of this recipe! It will become a new staple at my house!

      Excellent flavor, don't be afraid to use the serrano peppers. Used to make tacos and kids loved it (so did my mom)! I used a whole fryer with the mentioned ingredients and didn't have the need to add any additional ingredients

      5 stars for flavour, ease of preparation and versatility! Serrano peppers aren't always easy to find here so I used half a large red bell pepper instead. I'll be trying this again with serrano peppers when I find them. Wonderful recipe. Thank you!

      Very tasty and extremely easy! Took only minutes to throw together in the morning, and my family was very impressed with the outcome. It only needed 9 hours on low in my crockpot before it was fall-apart-tender (I honestly have never had chicken shred that easily before!!!). We used it to make sandwiches last night, but I can easily see this being our new favorite way to make chicken for tacos, enchiladas, etc. Thank you so much for sharing this recipe...my family will be enjoying it for a long time to come!
