Slow Cooker Chicken Tacos

beef-tacos-ck-1227905-l

I bumped into this super-easy slow cooker recipe a few days ago at Disney.com. My kids loved it so much I thought I’d pass it on!
P.S. The key ingredients to a great taco (in my humble opinion) is the toppings! Don’t forget to break out the guacamole, pico de gallo, and cheese!
Tip: To prevent extra guacamole from going bad, place it in the freezer in a Tupperware sealed container and then use an ice cream scoop to scoop out the needed amount for each subsequent dinner.

Hands-On Time: 5 minutes
Ready In: 8 hours
Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

2 pounds of boneless, skinless chicken thighs
1 jar of green or red salsa of your choice
1 can of diced green chiles
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 onion chopped
2 cloves of garlic, minced

Directions

1. Place chicken in the bowl of a slow cooker. Top with salsa, diced green chiles, cumin, onion and garlic. Cover and set on low. Cook for 8 hours.
2. Remove chicken from pot, shred, and return to juices.
3. Spoon chicken into taco shells, with whatever toppings your family likes. Or use the meat to make burritos, tostadas or as a filling for enchiladas.
