chicken tacos.
With Cinco de Mayo approaching, I decided to experiment and come up with a quick and easy recipe for chicken tacos. Forget about the mass amount of prep time, this no fuss dish is deliciously easy-peasy.
Chicken Tacos
You will need:
4-6 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (make sure it is thawed out, not frozen)
1 container of salsa of your choice
3 T. minced garlic
2 T. cumin
1/4 c. of lemon juice
Extras:
flour tortillas
shredded cheese
shredded lettuce (or spinach)
Place chicken breast and cover with salsa, garlic, cumin and lemon juice in a slow cooker on low. Cook for 6-8 hours, checking every few hours.
When removing the chicken from crockpot, make sure you have a landing space. The chicken will be moist and falling apart. Shred with fork. Place in tortillas, garish with toppings and enjoy. Be sure to spoon some of the left over salsa from the crockpot on top.
Delicioso!

Love, love, love this…………Maddie I have a really good recipe for gluten-free peanut butter choc chip cookies if you are interested. Let me know.

I would LOVE that recipe. I made gluten free chocolate chip cookies over the weekend, and will have that recipe up next week. Would enjoy trying my hand at your cookies. You can email me at: maddie@cityinajar.com. Thank you!
Wow, lovely recipe – and so hands-off and easy. Definitely going on the menu this week, thanks!
This sounds awesome!!! Can’t wait to try!! My friend at work just did something similar but just jar of salsa, packet of taco seasoning and the chicken. Love the addition of lemon and cumin!! Is the chicken you use frozen? Just curious. Thanks and yay!!
Great question! I’m going to amend the recipe because of it. I used thawed chicken. So, NO to frozen!
