Slow Cooker Chicken Tacos
Prep time: 10 minutes Cook time: On high, 3 hours (or on low, 6-7 hours)
4 Chicken Breasts, boneless skinless
1 white onion, chopped divided in half
4 garlic clove(s), thinly sliced
1 cup prepared chunky salsa, plus more for serving
2 tablespoon chili powder
1 tablespoon paprika
coarse salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste
12 small white corn tortillas
1/2 cup cilantro, chopped
1 lime cut into wedges
[1] In slow cooker, combine chicken, 1/2 chopped onion, garlic, salsa, chili powder, paprika, salt and pepper. Cover; cook on high, 4 hours (or on low, 8 hours).
[2] Transfer chicken to a serving bowl, and shred, using two forks; moisten with cooking juices. Heat the tortillas in a dry pan on stove top about ten seconds per side and then pop into a tent of tin foil to keep warm and pliable.
[3] Top the tortillas with shredded chicken, pieces of raw chopped onion, sprinkle with cilantro, and use the juice from one wedge of lime per serving.

I am going to make this for dinner tomorrow night, looks so yummy!
ReplyDeleteThese look yummy, I love quick easy meals like this, and I bet you could use that chicken in many different ways, yum!
ReplyDeleteIt was quick and easy, and the chicken we had for a few days afterward (I used four chicken breasts and I didn't think it would make as much as it did.) I ended up having some for lunch one day and then we ate a whole second dinner with crunchy tacos -they were still very good- but I was thinking that the meat would be excellent in enchiladas! Which would be a great second recipe if your husband is anything like mine, he hates leftovers most of the time and I usually have to transform it completely if I am going to pass it off again. Personally, if something is good I will eat it till it is gone.
ReplyDeleteYUM! I am always looking for some good slow cooker recipes. I am not a cilantro fan, but that looks easy enough to just not include!
ReplyDeleteWhat a delicious looking recipe and so good for nights when you don't have a lot of time to cook.
