A few chicken crock pot cooking tips:
Over long cooking, some dishes may lack flavor, but some extra preparation steps can be worthwhile.

Dredging chicken in flour, browning, then deglazing the pan with wine, a little vinegar, or broth and adding that to the pot can make quite a big difference in flavor.

CHICKEN CHILI CROCK POT RECIPE
Chicken chili recipe, you can substitute Turkey
5 large chicken breasts, chopped up into 1 inch strips
2 cans kidney beans, drained and rinsed under warm water
2 cans whole canned tomatoes
2 cans canned corn niblets
1 yellow onion, chopped into 1 inch ring segments
5 tablespoons chili powder (OR if you want to give it a real kick, 3 Tbl
Chili Powder and The seeds of one whole Red Chili pepper)
Put rinsed kidney beans on the bottom of the slow cooker. Next add Corn Niblets. Place 1/2 the Chili Powder on top of the corn and beans. Pile on the chicken slices. Pour in Tomatoes. Cover with remaining chili powder. Add the onion last as it is the softest thing in there. I cook mine for about 6 hours on High. It depends on how you like yours, six hours gets all the juices to almost a sauce like consistency. If you want a runnier chili cook it for 5 hours. 10 minutes before you serve it, put it in bowls and add tortilla chips and Monterey jack cheese on top of it. Serve with cornbread.
