Slow Cooker Chicken Taco Soup



 
You can call this soup or chili, but either way it is wonderful! This recipe is also very adaptable to your personal taste. I recommend using Bill Echols' Taco Seasoning from this website. Serve topped with shredded Cheddar cheese, a dollop of sour cream, and crushed tortilla chips, if you like. I hope you enjoy!

Slow Cooker Chicken Taco Soup

Yield: 4 Servings

Ingredients:
  • 1/2 onion, chopped
  • 1/2 (16 ounce) can chili beans
  • 1/2 (15 ounce) can black beans
  • 1/2 (15 ounce) can whole kernel corn, drained
  • 1/2 (8 ounce) can tomato sauce
  • 1/2 (12 fluid ounce) can or bottle beer
  • 1 (10 ounce) can diced tomatoes with green chilies, undrained
  • 1/2 (1.25 ounce) package taco seasoning
  • 1-1/2 whole skinless, boneless chicken breasts
  • shredded Cheddar cheese (optional)
  • sour cream (optional)
  • crushed tortilla chips (optional)

Directions:
  1. Place the onion, chili beans, black beans, corn, tomato sauce, beer, and diced tomatoes in a slow cooker. Add taco seasoning, and stir to blend. Lay chicken breasts on top of the mixture, pressing down slightly until just covered by the other ingredients. Set slow cooker for low heat, cover, and cook for 5 hours.
  2. Remove chicken breasts from the soup, and allow to cool long enough to be handled. Stir the shredded chicken back into the soup, and continue cooking for 2 hours. Serve topped with shredded Cheddar cheese, a dollop of sour cream, and crushed tortilla chips, if desired.

Crumpets

This traditional British teatime treat is midway between English muffin and pancake. Like an English muffin, it's full of holes, perfect for collecting rivulets of melted butter. But it's also moister and thinner ? more like a small pancake. Crumpets Yield: about twenty 3 3/4" crumpets. Ingredients: 1 1/2 cups lukewarm water 1 cup lukewarm milk 2 tablespoons melted butter 3 1/2 cups King Arthur Unbleached All-Purpose Flour 2 1/2 teaspoons instant yeast 1 teaspoon baking powder 1 1/4 teaspoons salt Directions: Combine all of the ingredients in a bowl, and beat vigorously for 2 minutes. A stand or hand mixer, set on high speed, work well here. Cover the bowl, and let the batter rest at room temperature for 1 hour. It will expand and become bubbly. Towards the end of the rest, preheat a griddle to medium-low, about 325°F. If you don't have an electric griddle, preheat a frying pan; it shouldn't be as hot as the temperature you use to cook pancakes. Lightly grease the

If you're a first-time bread-baker, you'll never believe this bread came out of your own oven. if you're a seasoned yeastie, you'll love this recipe's simplicity.
