Crock Pot Chicken Tacos for #SundaySupper
September 30, 2012
I was very excited about this week’s topic of Dishes in 5 Ingredients or Less, because I just made an amazing batch of these crock pot chicken tacos. Not only does this recipe use only THREE ingredients, but since the meat is prepared in the crock pot, it’s effortless to throw together and comes out extremely juicy and tender. Since I cook for the girls in the office, I love to toss all the ingredients in the crock pot before I go to bed and cook on low overnight. In the morning, I pack the chicken to-go and take it in for lunch.
There is a an endless combination of meals you can make featuring this succulent and zesty chicken. I like to use a wheat wrap and pile on the chicken, low-fat cheese, lettuce, onion, avocado, etc. for a healthy burrito; top shredded lettuce with cowboy caviar, the chicken taco meat, and drizzle with a balsamic vinaigrette for a flavorful salad; or make nachos by topping tortilla chips with cheese, chicken, cowboy caviar, lettuce and Greek Yogurt.
Whichever way you choose to serve it; it’s guaranteed to be a crowd pleaser!
Crock Pot Chicken Tacos
This recipe is as easy as…
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 packet taco seasoning
- 1 16oz. jar of salsa
Place chicken breasts in crock pot. Cover with taco seasoning and top with salsa. Seal the lid of the crock pot and turn the crock pot on low.
Cook for eight hours and serve!
