This is one of the easiest and yet tastiest recipes I have tried in a crockpot. We love tacos in this house and with just six ingredients these chicken tacos come out with much effort. I've already passed this on to a few friends and they are all surprised how easy and delicious this turns out. Pretty much you just dump everything in the crockpot and turn it on, let it do its magic, and then enjoy! Sounds good to me.
We added some shredded cheese and fresh guacamole to our tacos feel free
to use whatever toppings you like and have on hand.
Ingredients:
2 boneless chicken breast
1 jar of salsa ( I used archway farms traditional from Target)
1 4.5 oz can of green chilis (old el paso worked for me)
1 packet of taco seasoning
1 can of black beans rinsed and drained
1 cup of frozen corn
Pour the entire jar of salsa into the bowl of the crockpot, add the green chilis, and taco seasoning stir to combine. Add the chicken breast (mine were even still partway frozen) Cover chicken with mixture. Turn crockpot on low and let cook for 6 hrs. (or high for 4hrs)
About 45 minutes prior to the end of cooking time add the corn and black beans. Take chicken out and shred. Return to bowl and allow to cook at least another 1/2 hour.
Can be enjoyed inside taco shells, burritos, or over rice! As a side note one evening when my husband prepared this he used a small can of diced jalapenos instead of the green chili (he wasn't paying attention) and it gave the meat a nice spicy flavor. If you like spicy throw them in the bowl too.
