Slow-Cooker Chicken Burrito Bowls


































Slow-Cooker Chicken Burrito Bowls



































































  • 1 to 1 1/2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts, chicken
    thighs, or a mix

  • 1 (14.5-ounce) can diced tomatoes

  • 1 cup low-sodium chicken broth, plus more as needed

  • 2 teaspoons chili powder

  • 2 teaspoons salt

  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin

  • 1 (15-ounce) can black beans, drained and rinsed

  • 1 cup uncooked brown rice

  • 1 cup frozen corn kernels

  • Optional toppings: shredded cheese, chopped cilantro, sour
    cream, diced avocado, salsa, hot sauce, diced green onions, shredded lettuce














  1. Combine the chicken, diced tomatoes and their juices,
    chicken broth, chili powder, salt, and cumin in a 2 1/2- to 3 1/2-quart slow
    cooker. Make sure the chicken is covered with liquid, adding additional broth
    as needed. Cover and cook on the LOW setting for 3 to 4 hours.

  2. Uncover and stir in the beans, rice, and corn. Cover and
    continue cooking on the LOW setting for 3 to 4 hours more. Check the rice
    periodically in the last hour of cooking, stirring once or twice to make sure
    the rice cooks evenly and adding more chicken broth if the mixture seems dry.
    Cooking is done when the rice is tender — if the rice is done but there is
    still liquid left in the slow cooker, uncover and cook on the HIGH setting to
    let the liquid evaporate.

  3. Use 2 forks to shred the chicken into bite-sized pieces. You
    can do this either in the slow cooker itself and then mix it into the rice, or
    you can transfer the chicken to a clean cutting board if you prefer to keep it
    separate. Taste and stir in more salt or other seasonings as needed. Serve
    burrito bowls with a selection of toppings.
