If there’s one thing we can’t live without, other than our Instant Pot, it’s our slow cooker. It’s been a faithful kitchen friend for countless meals; it’s a weeknight necessity or a lazy weekend luxury. There’s no end to what our slow cooker can do, no meal – sweet or savory – that it can’t complete. So once again, we’ve turned to our slow cooker for an amazing meal, one that is rich, hearty, and wonderfully delicious. We suspect that this recipe will be familiar to many, but for those who’ve not yet enjoyed a green chili chicken casserole, well, you’re in for a truly delicious meal.
Even when using a slow cooker it is important to build layers of flavor, and that starts with seasoning the chicken. We’ve used garlic, onion, and chili powders, along with cumin and of course salt and pepper. Green chilis, diced onion, and enchilada sauce help to add flavor and keep the chicken nice and tender as the casserole cooks. The chicken is then shredded and stirred, then, once again building layers of flavor, we add some sour cream that melts beautifully into the sauce. Cooked rice gives the casserole additional substance, for a meal that is as hearty as it is delicious. Naturally, we need cheese, and a nice cheddar melted on top then sprinkled with fresh slices of green onions is the perfect way to finish our casserole.
