Ingredients

Instructions

  • Add the enchilada sauce, chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper to the Crock Pot and stir together.
  • Place the chicken breasts in the sauce pressing them down so they are completely covered.
  • Place the lid on the slow cooker and cook on HIGH for 4 hours or LOW for 6 hours.
  • Once the chicken is cooked through remove the chicken from the sauce and place it on a cutting board. Use two forks to shred the meat then return it to the slow cooker and stir it together with the sauce.
  • Stack the tortillas together and cut them in half. Then turn the knife 90 degrees and cut the halves into 4 pieces.
  • Add the cut corn tortillas and 4 ounces of shredded cheddar cheese to the slow cooker and stir all of the ingredients together.
  • Press down lightly on the mixture to create a flat surface and top with the remaining 4 ounces of cheese.
  • Cover with the lid and cook on HIGH for 60 minutes.
  • Once the cheese is melted and the dish is warmed through serve with your favorite toppings.
