Husband and I both loved this one. I sauted the pepper, garlic, onions, and chicken then put all the ingredients into a crock pot and cooked for 6 hours. I doubled the recipe and added extra chicken. Will definately make this one again. - 9/27/08

I made this for lunch today and boy was it YUMMY! My 21 year old son loved it too! I omit green pepper, added jalepeno's chopped instead. I also reduced the sodium by using no salt vegetables and fresh corn & tomatoes. I used canned black beans(rinsed) I served with dollup of fat free sour cream. - 11/11/08

We love this. I didn't saute anything, I put the onions, beans and corn into the crockpot, added garlic/onion/chili powder and some Pace Picante, then put the chik breasts on top. After it was done, I shredded the chicken and served over brown rice with cilantro (w/ bit of cheese and sour cream). - 9/24/09

Love it! To add a little more zip use a jalapeno with green pepper, dry chili pepper, or a couple Tbs of your favorite salsa. I served with a dollup of fat free sour cream & a pinch of shredded cheese. yumm - 5/8/09

Delicious and so easy to make. My kind of recipe! I did add 3 small jalapenos fresh out of the garden. I will be making this one again. This is also thick enough we will probably be using this in tortillas too. Served on rice for dinner and it was delicious. - 9/24/09

I thought the calorie count was a little high ,so I re-entered all the ingredients and it came out 215 for 3 servings.So I take it that the count was with the brown rice added. - 2/23/10

Sounds as though addition of a Chipotle pepper or two might fix the lack of spice here for those of us who prefer a bit more heat! (Did I really say this? Still, seems a good idea!) - 5/8/09
