- 1 chopped onion
- 2 pounds skinless, boneless, chicken breasts (fresh or frozen)
- 1 packet taco seasoning mix (I use low sodium) or homemade seasoning
- 1 (16 oz) jar salsa (use your favorite; I used a local Texas brand)
- ⅓ cup chopped fresh cilantro
- juice from 2 small limes
- Pressure cooker version-I sauteed the onion in the pressure cooker, the add the taco seasoning, salsa and 1 lime, bring to boil. Then add the chicken. Cook for 10 min if defrosted, cook 20-30 if frozen chicken breasts.
- Slow Cooker version-
- 1. Place chicken breasts in the bottom of your slow cooker. Sprinkle taco seasoning over the top, then cover with salsa, lime juice, and cilantro.
- 2. Place lid on top and cook for four hours on high, or 6-7 hours on low. Remove chicken from crockpot to a separate bowl and shred with two forks. Moisten chicken with small amounts of juice left over from the crockpot until you get the amount of moisture that you like. I used about ½ - ¾ cup juice.
- 3.Serve with taco shells or tortillas, adding on your favorite toppings. I like to use shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, diced avocado, cheese, sour cream, and even a drizzle of ranch dressing. Enjoy!
