Sweet Mexican Chicken!

Here is a YUMMY recipe for an EASY Mexican chicken.  You can use the shredded chicken in burritos or tacos, on salads, quesadillas, etc.  It is delicious!  It has a sweet flavor (not SPICY) if you like things a little more mild.  It could be compared to the taste of the sweet pork at places like Cafe Rio, but it's chicken... Try it, you'll LOVE it!

Mexican Chicken:
4-6 chicken breasts
1 can green enchilada sauce (choose your spice level)
1-2 cans El Pato tomato sauce (1 can with 4 chicken breasts is perfect)
1 cup brown sugar
1/2 onion, diced

Place all ingredients in crock pot and cook for 4 hours on high or 6 hours on low.  Shred & leave in sauce! 

That's it!  Easy, huh!  I love a good crock pot recipe that I can start early in the day and not think about again until dinner.  The El Pato Tomato sauce is easy to find.  At my local grocery store it is right next to the regular tomato sauce - at Wal-Mart I think it is on the ethnic food aisle.  So, check both spots!
