Slow cooker recipes are my favorite! Just dump all your ingredients in and a few hours later you have the perfect Slow Cooker Chicken Fajita Soup!

This soup and all my slow cooker recipes are so easy to make! Most of them you just literally have to place all your ingredients into the slow cooker, turn it on and then your dinner is ready in a few hours!

These are great for those busy days of work and school for the family to enjoy a great meal!

How to make Slow Cooker Chicken Fajita Soup:

This soup is made by placing all your ingredients into the slow cooker and then turn it on to cook it.

Place the chicken in first, and then everything else. Once it has cooked pull the chicken out and shred it.

Return the chicken back to the slow cooker and mix in with all the other ingredients and allow it to cook a little longer. Serve with tortilla chips and top with sour cheese and cheese.

Ingredient Notes:

  • Chicken Breast – Boneless and skinless.

  • Onion – Diced small for easy eating.
  • Minced Garlic
  • Chunky Salsa – this adds great flavor to the soup.
  • Fajita Seasoning – you can also use taco seasoning.
  • Chicken Broth – I used low sodium chicken broth.
  • Optional for topping – tortilla chips, sour cream, and shredded cheese.

Step Two – Use a fork to shred chicken. Serve and enjoy!

Recipe Tip

I use two forks to shred the chicken. Some people will recommend using a hand mixer to shred the chicken. Either way will work. The chicken is so hot it will shred easily.

What to serve with the Chicken Fajita Soup:

I love serving this soup with rice. Try either my Mexican Rice or my Cilantro Lime Rice.

These are both great options, or you can make just regular white or brown rice.

Can I freeze this soup?

Yes, this soup is really simple to freeze. Once it’s done allow it to cool completely then add it to a large freezer bag or into individual bags or freezer safe containers for a single serving.

Keep in the freezer for 3-4 months. Allow thawing in the fridge then reheat in the stovetop or microwave. It may take 24 hours to thaw.

How long is this soup good for?

Soup doesn’t last long in our house, because I can eat it for all 3 meals of every day. It’s that good! Ideally, it’s best within the week of making it.

How long does taco soup last in the fridge?

This soup will last 5 to 7 days in your refrigerator. Store in an airtight container with a sealed lid.
