Generously spray the inside of your slow cooker with cooking spray.

Season the chicken thighs with taco seasoning and sear them in a hot skillet until browned. Transfer the chicken to your slow cooker.

Add the enchilada sauce to the slow cooker and stir until the chicken is coated.

Add in the onion, minced garlic, drained tomatoes, and chopped green chiles and stir well.

Cover and cook on low for 4 to 4.5 hours, until the chicken is cooked through and easily falls apart.

Once done, remove chicken from cooker, shred it using two forks, and set it aside.

In the slow cooker, stir in the cubed cream cheese and shredded cheddar until they're melted and well combined.

Stir the shredded chicken and the cooked pasta into the slow cooker.

Cover and cook on high for an extra 10 minutes until everything is heated through and well mixed.

Garnish the dish with freshly chopped cilantro before serving.
