Ingredients
Scale
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 packet taco seasoning
- 1 cup salsa
- Taco shells
- Toppings (such as cheese, lettuce, and sour cream)
Instructions
- Place the chicken breasts in the crockpot, laying them flat so they can cook evenly.
- Sprinkle the taco seasoning liberally over the chicken breasts, allowing the spices to coat each piece nicely.
- Pour the salsa on top of the chicken, creating a flavorful sauce that will keep the meat moist during cooking.
- Cover the crockpot and cook on low for 6-8 hours or high for 3-4 hours, depending on your scheduling needs.
- Shred the chicken using two forks and mix it back into the sauce to ensure it’s packed with flavor.
- Serve the flavorful chicken in taco shells with favorite toppings.
Notes
For extra flavor, marinate the chicken in salsa and seasoning overnight before cooking. Use gluten-free taco shells or lettuce wraps for a fresh alternative.
