¼ cup sour cream
1 1-ounce package taco seasoning
2 ½ pounds chicken breasts 3-4 breasts

INSTRUCTIONS
In the bowl of a 6-8 quart crockpot, add your salsa, cream cheese, monterey jack cheese, sour cream and taco seasoning and stir to combine. The mixture should be smooth but your cream cheese may remain clumped. This is ok, it will melt down during cooking.
Nestle the chicken breasts into the creamy salsa mixture making sure to spoon some over the chicken to coat each piece with flavor.
Cover and cook on low 3-4 hours or high 2-3 hours until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
Using two forks, shred your chicken in the crockpot.
Garnish with cilantro and serve warm on its own or make tacos with the shredded chicken. Another great option is serving this chicken on sandwich buns!
