Easy Chicken Pozole Recipe in Crockpot

easy crockpot pozole recipe

This super easy chicken pozole recipe only requires 4 ingredients. Just throw chicken and salsa in the crockpot and once it’s done, shred it. Then, you can add the final two ingredients and BOOM –>  homemade soup.

I recently heard that you’re not supposed to put frozen chicken breasts straight into the crockpot because they’ll be at an unsafe temperature. Hmmm. I’ve done this for years and it’s been fine. But since it was on my mind I took the chicken out of the freezer the night before and put it in the fridge overnight.

In the morning I put the chicken and salsa in the crockpot on low. I had an onion hanging out on the counter and chopped it up to add to the mix. This is not necessary. I just really like onions.
