Slow Cooker Chipotle Chicken


4  boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1/4 cup melted butter
salt and pepper to taste
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed cream of chicken soup
1/2 cup chicken broth (I use Better Than Bouillon)
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, cubed
3-4 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, chopped (use less or more for milder or hotter)
1 tablespoon adobo sauce
hot cooked rice or fettuccine noodles

Pound the chicken breasts between plastic wrap so they are all even thickness.  Brush with melted butter on both sides and season with salt and pepper.  Place in slow cooker.  Spread minced garlic over chicken breasts.  In a bowl combine soup, chicken broth, chipotle peppers, adobo sauce and cream cheese.  Pour over chicken breasts in slow cooker.  Stir gently.  Cover and cook on low for about 4 hours.  Serve over rice or noodles.
