SLOW COOKER CHICKEN FAJITAS

I searched high and low for a great recipe for slow cooker fajitas before I came up with this. The best part for me is that I don't have to defrost the meat before I throw it in there. Also, this makes a very large batch, so it's good for big families or a crowd of guests.

Steps:

  • Add half of the sliced peppers and onions to your slow cooker.
  • Layer the chicken and coat all sides with taco seasoning.
  • Top with garlic, the juice from one lime, and tomatoes (be sure to drain).
  • Add the remaining peppers and onions, cover and any remaining lime juice.
  • Cook on high for 3-4 hours.
  • Remove chicken and cut/shred into slices (chicken left longer will tend to shred more - cook to your preference).

  • NOTE: If you find that there is too much liquid, you can remove till there is a desired amount before serving.

SLOW COOKER FAJITAS

"I love fajitas like they serve in Mexican restaurants, but when I prepared them at home, the meat was always chewy," explains Katie Urso of Seneca, Illinois. "Then I tried this recipe in my slow cooker, and my husband and I savored every last bite. Fresh cilantro gives these fajitas the extra punch that makes them taste truly authentic."
