Try something different this week for Taco Night with these easy and delicious Slow Cooker Cilantro Lime Chicken Tacos.
Tacos are pretty much the same thing as love. Am I right or am I right? I could eat a taco just about every day and every once in a while I love to try something new to try! And by something new I mean a new taco 😉
How to make Slow Cooker Cilantro Lime Chicken Tacos:
To your slow cooker add chicken, taco seasoning, salsa, and the juice from both limes. Cook on low for 6-7 hours or on high for 4-5 hours until chicken is fully cooked and tender. Use a fork to shred chicken add in fresh cilantro and mix. Serve and enjoy.
Cooking tips:
- To get the best taste, wait until chicken is cooked then add in your cilantro. This give it a great taste and your cilantro will not wither like it would if you added it before.
- Buy an extra lime for serving. Squeeze some on the top of your taco or add some lime juice to your sour cream when serving for extra lime flavor.
