Yummy New Recipe

Several people on one of the "Mommy Boards" that I frequent were raving about a crock pot chicken taco recipe, so I had to try it. We had made another version a few times that we liked, but this one blew the original out of the water. I've made these twice in the last two weeks, and this has quickly become a family favorite - and it's so easy. Here's the recipe:

Ingredients:
  • 1 pkg chicken taco seasoning (you can use regular taco seasoning, but the consensus is that this is better)
  • 1 container fresh pico de gallo (I used HEB Medium; can subsitute Rotel, but again, the consensus is that fresh is better)
  • 3-4 frozen chicken breasts
  • 1/4 c. water
  • 1/4 c. olive oil

Directions:

  • Sprinkle the chicken taco seasoning in the bottom of the crock pot.
  • Lay the chicken breasts on top.
  • Dump the pico over the chicken.
  • Pour the water and oil over everything.
  • Cook on low for 4-6 hours. You can flip the chicken halfway through, but you don't have to.
  • Remove the chicken breasts, shred with two forks, then return to the crock pot and stir.
  • Serve with tortillas and your favorite taco toppings.

Soooooo good! Hope you enjoy!
