1. Place 3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts in crockpot. Add minced garlic and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
2. Add 2 cups of water--chicken doesn't need to be covered.
5. Place shredded chicken back into crockpot with approximately 1 cup of water and taco seasoning. (I made my own taco seasoning using this as a guideline, but changed it up a bit.)3. Cook on low for 3 hours.
4. Take chicken out and shred using 2 forks. Dump out liquid from crockpot and wash.6. Turn crockpot to warm for an hour...or as long as you need until dinner time!
7. Serve in warm flour tortilla or taco shell with lettuce, cheese, cilantro, jalapenos, tomatoes...whatever toppings your heart desires! (would also be good in nacho form!)

What a grand idea! I will definitely have to make this soon...except find a recipe for taco seasoning without cumin because Peter, who isn't very picky at all, doesn't like cumin (he says it tastes and smells like dirty armpits:( And I like the close up of Ems:)
ReplyDeleteGood job! I will have to try the taco seasoning---I have never really found a pre-packaged one I like very much---and they're always too salty for our good health! And, "Hello, little Emily-Boo"! "I love that lil face!"
ReplyDeleteI am VERY excited to try this!! Thanks for all of the recipes--I am super impressed!
ReplyDelete1. Thank you for including a picture of Ems--cute little cupid face! :)
ReplyDelete2. I wonder how this would do frozen. I need to get a new crockpot that will shut off to warm after so long so until I do that I'm thinking about freezer meals. I've heard people doing crockpot chicken and freezing but never know how stuff will hold up. But looks really really yummy! And easy!!
