Ingredients

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

1 cup salsa

1 package reduced sodium taco seasoning

1 can reduced fat cream of mushroom soup (condensed)

1/2 cup reduced fat sour cream

Directions

Add chicken to slow cooker.
Sprinkle taco seasoning over chicken.
Pour salsa and soup over chicken.
Cook on low for 6 to 8 hours.
Remove from heat and stir in sour cream.
Serve with rice.

NOTES:
You may use half the packet of taco seasoning (I have started doing this to reduce sodium content myself)

Some slow cookers cook faster than others. Mine is a true slow cooker (have had it over 10 years.) The newer ones cook a bit faster and you may have to adjust your cooking time based on that!

I thought the recipe needed a change so I cubed the chicken breasts and the last hour of cooking I added 1 can black beans drained and 2 cups frozen corn. I served in a bowl, added shredded cheddar and a tablespoon of sour cream on the side. It was quite good. I would make it again - 6/25/09

This recipe is easy and delicious. One note though, I make it without the soup (cuts down calories and sodium) and sometimes add black bean and/or corn like some of the other reviewers. It is just as yummy without the soup for those who might want to omit it. - 7/11/09

I omit the soup and add more salsa and add green peppers and some chopped jalapenos... Very spicy and very good .. and better for you than with soup. I like the idea of adding black beans which I will do next time.. - 1/5/10

Great receipe I just change the taco mix to avoid too much salt, it is easy to make your taco mix just use chili powder and cumin (salt optional)and it is great with or without mushroom cream soup - 1/26/10

Used 5 very large split breasts. Left out soup + s.cream. Added green pepper + onion. Cooked 5 hrs on low. Then added 2 cans black beans (mashed one) + 1 can of corn. Cooked 1more hour on high. Had it alone first night. On a salad with cheese and 2T LF S.Cream the next. WOW! Was it DEEEELISH! : ) - 1/23/10

how does this get served? One piece of chicken but how much of the sauce to equal the calorie intake? I would think with all the leftover sauce you are not eating the exact calories per serving. - 1/2/10

This was GREAT!!! I did not add the sour cream into the Salsa Chicken. I topped the dish with the sour cream and a little low fat cheese. I also added the black beans as others said. For my 6 year old son who hates just about everything, I wrapped this in a tortilla. HE LOVED IT and asked for more. - 1/26/10
