Remember Friday, when I told you I had chicken in the crock-pot?
This chicken was so good, and so easy. Don't you just love meals that you can prepare in the crock-pot, then basically forget about them? I do, too!
Salsa Lime Crock-Pot Chicken
Ingredients:
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
4 Tablespoons lime juice
1 Tablespoon chili powder
1 cup salsa
flour tortillas
lettuce
cheese
sour cream
...whatever other taco sides you might want. The possibilities are endless.
Directions:
Place chicken in bottom of crock-pot.
In a small bowl, mix lime juice with chili powder.
Pour juice over chicken.
Cook on low for 4 hours.
After 4 hours, remove the chicken and shred.
Place the chicken back into the pot and add the salsa. I added a smidge more lime juice here as well. Let cook for about an hour longer.
Serve on flour tortillas with your taco sides.
MMM! I don't know what it is about lime that just screams summer, but these tacos were great. And, not too hot; not even for maintenance man.

This looks really yummy and easy.. not to mention healthy. These days I am trying to stay away from the bread and more use flat bread or tortillas.

I was so surprised that everyone liked these! Even the 5 year old.(he doesn't eat bread, so his was just the chicken).
