Ingredients

2 -21/2 lb chicken boneless, without skin (approximately 4 large pieces)
2 cups red enchilada sauce (mild or medium, from a can or jar)
8 ounces cream cheese, cut into small pieces and softened.
1/2 cup bottled milk, half.

Creamy Enchilada Chicken: Instructions

Spray the inside of your slow cooker with nonstick cooking spray so that it can be easily cleaned.
Put the chicken breasts in the bottom of the slow cooker in a single layer.
Spray the red enchilada sauce on the chicken and ensure that the chicken evenly gets covered.
Bake 4 to 6 hours on LOW or 2 1/2 to 3 1/2 hours on HIGH until the chicken is extremely tender and can easily be shredded with a fork. Not all slow cookers work the same, and therefore it is better to start checking it sooner.
After cooking the chicken, with two forks, shred the chicken right in the slow cooker into bite sized portions, combining it with enchilada sauce.
The shredded chicken and sauce are added with the cubed softened cream cheese and 1 1/2 cups of the shredded white cheese. Stir, pushing the cream cheese to the bottom with your spoon or spatula so that it becomes mixed into the sauce.
Cook and cover with LOW one more 15-20 minutes, until the cream cheese and the cheese melt completely and the sauce is smooth and creamy, and the slightest thickening. Blend once more to make a rich reddish-orange sauce.
Evenly sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of the shredded white cheese over the top of the creamy chicken mixture. Cover and leave it on WARM or LOW 5 to 10 minutes, until the cheese on top is liquefied and bubbly at the edges.
Stir the chicken softly in case you want it to have a swirled appearance with pools of melted cheese, and then serve hot in large quantities on rice, in a tortilla, or Serve it with a tortilla or over tortilla chips so you can dip them in.
