Slow Cooker Shredded Mexican Chicken
Ingredients
- 4 Chicken Breasts
- 1 small Can Chicken Broth
- 1 packet Taco Seasoning (or a few tablespoons of Homemade Seasoning)
- 7 oz Can Roasted Diced Green Chilies
Instructions
- Place chicken into your slow cooker and cover with broth and taco seasoning.
- Cook on low for 4 -5 hours.
- Shred chicken and add the whole can of chilies (don’t drain).
- Mix everything together and let cook for an additional 30 minutes before serving.
This can be done on the stove faster! Use a second can of broth and boil the chicken in the 2 cans of broth until cooked, about 25 minutes. Then remove all but about 1 cup of broth, add the taco seasoning and shred the chicken. Add the chilies and let simmer on low heat covered for 15+ minutes.
