Equipment
5-6 quart oval slow cooker
Ingredients
1
each
red, yellow & green bell pepper
(seeded & sliced into strips)
1
yellow onion,
sliced
4
cloves
garlic,
minced
16
ounce
jar salsa
2
pounds
boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1
packet
fajita seasoning
2
Tablespoons
fresh lime juice
Instructions
Pour half of the salsa into the bottom of the crock pot.
Top with half of the sliced peppers and sliced onions.
Sprinkle on minced garlic.
Then top with chicken breasts.
Sprinkle the tops of the chicken breasts with packet of fajita seasoning.
Top chicken breasts with remaining salsa, peppers, onions.
Squeeze lime juice over top.
Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours (or high heat for 3-4 hours) until chicken is cooked through.
There will be a lot of juice produced during cooking so may want to drain that out or use a ladle to remove it (if desired.)
Once cooked, remove chicken and shred using a couple of forks.
Put the shredded chicken back into the crock pot, cover and switch it to the "warm setting" until ready to serve.
Give it a taste, you may want to season with salt and pepper. Serve in flour or corn tortilas with all your favorite toppings.
