Notes

For best results, use room-temperature salsa and cream cheese to help the crock pot heat evenly, especially when starting with frozen chicken. If you prefer a thicker sauce, stir in a cornstarch slurry during the last 30 minutes of cooking. This dish also works great with chicken thighs for extra flavor and tenderness.
