Crockpot Shredded Chicken Tacos

Since I had my amazing friends in town last weekend I was not able to plan my meals for the week like I usually do. So Thursday night came and I was scrambling to think of a clean home cooked meal that would keep me away from the temptation of eating out. Like usual, I was craving Mexican, so I went to Pinterest and found a bunch of recipes for shredded chicken tacos. And before I knew it, I had pulled out my crockpot, some frozen chicken breasts, salsa, and a little taco seasoning. That was it, and they were so delicious we ate them on both Thursday and Friday night!

Ingredients:

  • 2 large chicken breasts
  • 1 15 oz jar salsa (we used salsa verde)
  • 1/2 packet taco seasoning (look out for additives in the ingredients when you purchase)

Directions:

  1. Place large chicken breasts (defrosted) in crockpot.
  2. Cover with your taco seasoning and then salsa.
  3. Cook on high for 4 hours or low for 8 hours.
  4. Shred with a fork and serve with corn tortillas, fresh lime, and fresh cilantro.

That is it! I am telling you that these are heaven! Plus they are clean, require really no cooking on your part, and are easy to clean up. If you are completing the 21 Day Fix diet these also fit right in your meal plan, 1 red container for your chicken and 1 yellow container for your corn tortilla. Let me know how you all like it!
