2 chicken breast, diced
2 cups chopped onion (approximately 1 medium)
1 1/2 cups chopped red or yellow bell pepper
1 cup chopped green chilies

14 oz can diced tomatoes, or 2 cups fresh tomatoes, diced
7 oz can tomato sauce
3 cloves minced garlic
1 Tbsp cumin
1 Tbsp chili powder
2 tsp oregano

1 cup chicken stock

Place the chicken in the crock pot and stir in the olive oil, coating the chicken well. Place the remaining ingredients in the crock pot and cook on low for 6-8 hours, don’t you just love how easy this is?? If you are doubling the recipe to set aside a meal in the freezer, reserve the chicken stock to add when you place the meal in the crock pot.
