Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 (16 oz) jar salsa
  • 1 (1 oz) packet taco seasoning

Method
 

  1. Coat the chicken evenly with the taco seasoning.
  2. Place the seasoned chicken in a slow cooker and pour the salsa over the top.
  3. Cover and cook on low for 6 to 7 hours, or high for 3 to 4 hours, until the chicken shreds easily.
  4. Shred the chicken with two forks directly in the pot, toss with the cooking juices, and serve warm.

Notes

Chicken thighs swap in one-for-one with the same cook times. If your salsa is particularly chunky, you can pulse it in a blender for a few seconds before pouring it in to create a smoother sauce that coats the shreds better.
