Crock Pot Chicken Tacos


Taco night is a favorite at our house. But this week I thought I would change up our usual ground beef tacos with some crock pot chicken! With just a couple ingredients, you will have the perfect chicken taco fillings.

Ingredients:
-4 chicken breasts
-1 16oz. jar of salsa (I used mild)
-1 packet of chicken taco seasoning



Directions:
1. Place chicken at the bottom of crock pot.
2. Sprinkle taco seasoning packet over the chicken.
3. Cover with entire jar of salsa.
4. Cook on low for approx. 8 hours.
5. When done, shred chicken in the crock pot and let sit for about 10 more minutes so the chicken can absorb the sauce.



I served ours on soft flour tortillas, topped with lettuces, shredded cheese, sour cream and avocado. The boys love topping their own tacos and my husband spiced his up with tabasco sauce. A hit all around!

  2. I made this today, but I wasn't able to start it until noon. I put it in on high and watched the temperature of the chicken since I didn't know how long to cook it on high. If anyone is wondering, 3 hours on high is perfect!! Thanks for this tasty recipe! I'm definitely making it again and sharing with friends. :)

  3. I started my recipe about 2 years ago I only use El Pato chili and do not fry my tortillas! Some times I do fry them! It is a Mexican tradition to fry tortillas! Today I will make rice/beans/ guacamole!
