Slow Cooker Crispy Chicken Tacos

Instructions

Step 1: In a slow cooker, place the chicken breasts and sprinkle with taco seasoning. Add chicken broth and salsa.

Step 2: Cover and cook on low for 6–7 hours or on high for 3–4 hours, until the chicken is tender and easily shreds.

Step 3: Shred the chicken directly in the slow cooker using two forks. Stir in the chopped cilantro.

Step 4: Heat a large skillet over medium heat and lightly coat with vegetable oil.

Step 5: Warm each tortilla briefly in the skillet, then fill half with shredded chicken and cheese. Fold in half to close.

Step 6: Cook each taco in the skillet for 2–3 minutes per side, or until golden and crispy.

Step 7: Serve immediately with lime wedges, salsa, guacamole, and sour cream.

Storage Information

Store leftover shredded chicken in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Reheat in a skillet or microwave before assembling tacos. Assembled tacos are best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in the fridge for up to 2 days and reheated in a toaster oven or skillet to regain crispiness.
