Slow-Cooker Chili Chicken Tacos

I might have gotten this from Delish. It is, for sure, delish. It's one of our favorites. It's a lot of little bowls of stuff to carry to wherever you're eating, but it's totally worth it.

I use Abby's Guac and Cilantro Rice (both of which you can find on this blog somewhere).

Ingredients

  • 2 lbs (about 6) boneless, skinless chicken breasts (you can use thighs, or both)
  • 4 cloves garlic thinly sliced
  • 1/2 C. prepared tomato salsa (plus more for serving). I often use a chipotle salsa.
  • 2 Tbsp chopped canned chipotle chiles in adobo
  • 1 Tbsp chili powder
  • coarse salt and ground pepper
  • hard corn taco shells and/or soft corn tortillas
  • Abby's guac
  • Cilantro rice
  • fresh cilantro, shredded cheese, lime wedges, and sour cream for serving
Directions
1. In slow cooker, combine chicken, garlic, salsa, chili powder, 1 tsp salt, and tsp pepper. Cover and cook on high for 2-3 hours (or low for 4-6 hours).
2. Transfer chicken to a serving bowl and shred, using 2 forks. Return to slow cooker and turn the slow cooker off. 
3. Serve with shells/tortillas, guac, cilantro rice, shredded cheese, lime wedges, fresh cilantro, salsa, and sour cream.
