Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 oz packet reduced-sodium taco seasoning
  • 15 oz salsa verde
  • 1 tsp ground cumin for added depth of flavor
  • Taco Toppings: Corn or Flour Tortillas and selections like diced tomatoes, shredded cheese, fresh cilantro, sliced jalapeƱos, or avocado

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • Start by greasing your slow cooker. Lay the chicken breasts flat at the bottom to form the base for your tacos.
  • Evenly sprinkle the taco seasoning and ground cumin over the chicken, ensuring each piece is well-coated with the spices.
  • Pour the salsa verde on top of the seasoned chicken, making sure it covers the chicken completely.
  • Cover and cook on low for 7 to 8 hours, or on high for about 5 hours. The chicken should be tender and easily shredded.
  • Once cooked, shred the chicken right in the crock pot using two forks, stirring it together with the salsa to incorporate flavors.
  • Spoon the chicken mixture into warm tortillas and dress them with your favorite toppings for delicious tacos.

Notes

These tacos are easy to prepare and can be customized with your preferred toppings. For an extra kick, add a squeeze of lime juice before serving!
