Lime Cilantro Slow Cooker Chicken

I think that sometimes when we think of crock pots we think of cold weather.

I know that as the weather get's warmer hotter the idea of a hot dinner can be a little off-putting to some.

This recipe, however, is so bright and colorful that I can't wait to make it no matter what the season!

Here Is What You'll Need:

-24oz jar of salsa, I chose Peach Pineapple Chipotle because I love the fun flavors it adds to the meal.

-Juice from 1 lime

-1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped

-1 package of taco seasoning mix

-6 boneless skinless chicken breast halves.

Don't forget to spray your crock pot with a non-stick spray to make clean-up easier!

First steps first juice the lime

& 

Chop the Cilantro.

Pour your salsa, lime juice, cilantro, and taco seasoning into the crock pot.

Mix well.

Add your chicken and mix further.

Cook on low for 6 hours.

When you are done you can do one of 2 things.

1. Serve this over chicken with salsa mixture over a bed of rice...

2.(what we did)...take your chicken, throw it in the Kitchenaid and shred, the serve on tortillas.

Either way I forgot to get a picture of the final product, but I assure you it was delicious.

Not to mention you can't go wrong with only 5 ingredients!

  I hope you have a Blessed Monday!
