This was super easy to make and it was very flavorful. Eat it as is or as part of a burrito or over a plate for rice.
Ingredients
- 1.25 lbs Chicken (I prefer chicken thighs because chicken breast is too dry)
- 1 oz Taco Seasoning Mix – Low Sodium (I actually used a chicken taco seasoning mix but any would do)
- 16 oz Salsa – Your choice of flavor and heat (I chose Del Real, Red Salsa, Fire Roasted. It was a bit spicy though)
Instructions
- Cut up/trim the fat off the chicken, if needed
- Place the chicken into the bottom of your slow cooker
- Sprinkle the Taco Seasoning Mix all over the chicken
- Pour the salsa over the chicken
- Mix everything
- Put the lid on and let it cook on low heat for 4-5 hours or high heat for 2-3 hours (the chicken should reach 165F/73C)
- Optionally, shred the chicken 15-20 minutes before it’s done by using 2 forks or meat shredding claws
