Ingredients
Scale
- 1 1/2 cups cooked garbanzo beans (equivalent to 1-15oz can, how to cook dry beans)
- 1 1/2 cups cooked black beans (equivalent to 1-15oz can, how to cook dry beans)
- 1 1/2 cups corn kernels
- 1 cup homemade salsa (or just throw all of those ingredients in the slow-cooker)
- 1/2 cup salsa verde
- 1 lb. uncooked chicken (any pieces)
- 1/4 cup cilantro, chopped
Instructions
- Place all ingredients in a large slow cooker* and cook on low for 4-6 hours.
- Serve over rice, homemade cornbread, or with homemade tortillas.
Notes
- I have this 6-quart slow cooker and this recipe fits with room to spare. I don’t recommend using a slow cooker any smaller than 4 quarts.
- Make sure the salsa chicken is in an airtight container and it will last in the fridge for 3-4 days and in the freezer, it will last for 3-4 months.
