Description

Delicious and easy slow cooker chicken tacos perfect for weeknight dinners or gatherings.


Ingredients

  • 2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 can Rotel diced tomatoes and green chiles
  • 1 can green chiles
  • 1 cup salsa con queso
  • 12 street taco tortillas
  • Fresh toppings (lettuce, avocado, cilantro, sour cream)


Instructions

  1. Place the chicken breasts directly in the slow cooker.
  2. Pour in the Rotel, green chiles, and salsa con queso, ensuring the chicken is well coated.
  3. Cover and set your slow cooker to low for 360-480 minutes, or high for 180-240 minutes until the chicken is tender.
  4. Once cooked, use two forks to shred the chicken and mix it with the sauce until evenly combined.
  5. Heat street taco tortillas in a skillet or microwave until warm and pliable.
  6. Fill each tortilla with the shredded chicken mixture and top generously with your choice of fresh toppings.
  7. Dig in right away for the best experience!

Notes

Consider using chicken thighs for richer flavor. For a low-carb option, use lettuce wraps instead of tortillas.
