Slow Cooker Chicken Tacos
These are super good and super easy. Robert and I have this often.
What family doesn't love tacos, and what mom doesn't love a good slow cooker recipe? This recipe is the best of both, and as a bonus, calls for less expensive chicken thighs that can withstand hours of slow cooking without losing their texture.
Ingredients
- 1 can Green chiles, diced
- 1 jar salsa, (about 12 ounces; mild or spicy to taste)
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 1 whole onion, chopped
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts
Directions
1. Place chicken in the bowl of a slow cooker. Top with salsa, diced green chiles, cumin, onion and garlic. Cover and set on low. Cook for 8 hours.
2. Remove chicken from pot, shred, and return to juices.
3. Spoon chicken into taco shells, with whatever toppings your family likes. Or use the meat to make burritos, tostadas or as a filling for enchiladas.
