"Clean" Chicken Enchiladas

I know chicken enchiladas really aren't that exciting, but these were CLEAN! 👍🏻 I cooked up about two pounds of chicken (coated with the homemade seasoning below) in the crockpot on high for 3 hours - started it at 3:30 when I got home! Shredded it up while my sauce was simmering, assembled them, and dinner was in the oven in no time! 👍🏻 The leftover chicken could be used in burrito bowls tomorrow night. 😍 Try it out and let me know what you think!
