Cajeta Crock Pot Method Recipes

Steps:

• Combine chicken breasts, tomatoes, salsa, chili powder, salt, paprika, sugar, onion powder, garlic powder, bouillon granules, cumin, cayenne pepper, and red pepper flakes in a slow cooker.
• Cover and cook on Low until chicken is tender, about 5 hours. Transfer chicken to a cutting board; shred using 2 forks. Return to the slow cooker. Add onions, red bell pepper, yellow bell pepper, green bell pepper, and cornstarch.
• Cook on Low until peppers soften, 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Serve chicken and peppers with tortillas, Cheddar Jack cheese, and sour cream.

Steps:

• Dissolve baking soda in the tablespoon of water. Set aside.
• Pour the milk into the slow cooker. Whisk in the sugar. Add the cinnamon stick and the dissolved baking soda. Stir well.
• Turn slow cooker on high and cook, uncovered, for 24 hours, but see next step before leaving it alone that long.
• After about 18 hours, the cajeta will have darkened into light golden brown. That's when to keep an eye on it. Stir from time to time to make sure it cooks evenly.
• When it is noticeably thick and richly golden, test a couple of drops on a cold plate. The cooled cajeta should be the consistency of caramel sauce. If still a little runny, cook longer until it reaches consistency.
• When cajeta is ready, strain through fine mesh into a bowl or wide mouth storage jar.
• It will keep for a month or more, covered, in the refrigerator. But who could possibly leave it for a month? You'll be wanting to put it on everything!

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients in slow cooker. Stir well, and cook on high for 10 hours.
• Stir occasionally the last hour.
• Strain through a fine strainer and then store in the refrigerator for up to three weeks.
• Serve at room temperature. Good over cake, fruit, and ice cream. Enjoy!

Steps:

• PREHEAT oven to 350°F Place 1 cup of the sugar in small heavy saucepan; cook on medium heat until sugar is melted and deep golden brown, stirring constantly with wooden spoon. Remove from heat. Immediately pour into 9-inch round baking pan; tilt pan to evenly cover bottom of pan with syrup. Set aside.
• PLACE milk and cream cheese in blender; cover. Blend until smooth. Add remaining 1 cup sugar, the eggs, vanilla and salt; cover. Blend just until smooth; add cajeta and pour into prepared baking pan. Place filled baking pan in larger baking pan; add enough hot water to larger pan to come halfway up side of smaller pan.
• BAKE 50 minute to 1 hour or until knife inserted near center comes out clean. Cool. Carefully remove flan from water. Cool on wire rack.
• REFRIGERATE several hours or unti chilled. When ready to serve, run a knife around the edge of the pan. Then, invert pan onto serving plate to unmold flan. Store any leftovers in refrigerator. If you have trouble getting the caramel out of the pan, place the bottom of the pan in hot water and then spoon the caramel on the flan.
