📝 Preparation Steps
1
Spray the inside of a medium or large crockpot lightly with nonstick cooking spray.
Nonstick cooking spray
2
Spoon or pour the salsa into the bottom of the crockpot.
3
Next, wash the potatoes and pat them dry. Place them in the crockpot on top of the salsa. If the potatoes are larger than 2-inches in diameter, you can cut them in half or quarter them.
4
Use tongs to place the chicken thighs on top of the potatoes and salsa.
5
Place the lid on the crockpot and set to low temperature for ⏱️ 8 hours or high temperature for ⏱️ 5-6 hours.
6
When the cook time is up, remove the lid. You can either use a serving spoon to serve the chicken pieces with the potatoes whole, or you can use a spatula to mix together the chicken, salsa, and potatoes, and serve it more like a stew.
7
Top the mixture with your favorite toppings including chopped cilantro, extra salsa, guacamole, avocado slices, yogurt or sour cream (use dairy-free versions for dairy-free diets), shredded cheese, or sliced jalapenos (I personally love pickled candied jalapenos).
8
Serve hot.
