Recipe from Carlsbad Cravings.
Ingredienst:
2 lb. chicken breasts
1 TBSP olive oil
1/2 c. medium salsa
3-4 TBSP brown sugar
1 4 oz. can mild diced green chilies
1 14.5 oz. can fire roasted diced tomatoes, drained
1 TBSP chili powder
1 1/2 tsp. salt
1 tsp. ground cumin
1 tsp. garlic powder
1 tsp. onion powder
1/2 tsp. smoked paprika
1/2 tsp. dried oregano
1/2 tsp. pepper
1/2 tsp. ground chipotle chili powder
1 tsp. liquid smoke
Directions:
Mix salsa through liquid smoke in crockpot. Rub chicken with olive oil and add to crockpot, and spoon some of the sauce over the breasts.
Cook on high for 2-4 hours or on low for 6-7 hours or until chicken is tender enough to shred.
Remove chicken to a cutting board, and let rest 5 minutes before shredding (there will be liquid remaining). Return shredded chicken and let cook on low for an additional 20 minutes to absorb some of the liquid/juices. Drain all excess liquid.
In a medium bowl add the Bisquick and cut the sour cream into the Bisquick; then add the 7 Up. Note: This makes a very soft dough.
Sprinkle additional Bisquick on the counter or a cutting board and pat the dough out in the same size/shape as the baking dish you are using. Cut the biscuits into squares (optional).
Melt the butter and pour the melted butter into a 9×9 baking dish. Place biscuits on top of the butter (biscuits will be touching), and bake for 15 minutes, or until golden brown.
