Making a fun and delicious family meal doesn’t have to be hard or time consuming. In fact the chicken can be cooked in the crock pot while you are at work. This receipt can be adjusted to feed two to four people. The ingredients do not have to be exact. If you want more or less of anything you can adjust.
Ingredients:
2-4 Boneless chicken breast (depending on how many people you are feeding, estimating one chicken breast for every one to two people)
1 Jar of Mild Salsa for every two chicken breast
Packet of Chicken Taco Seasoning
Tortilla Chips
Bag of Shredded Lettuce
1 Large Tomato
Sour Cream
Shredded Mexican Cheese, or Queso (heated in sauce pan)
Start:
Rub boneless chicken with the taco seasoning for chicken. Place chicken in crock pot and cover with salsa. Cook on low for 6-8 hours. After cooking, the chicken should be easily shred into smaller pieces.
Place tortilla chips into serving bowls. Top chips with the shredded chicken. Then add the shredded lettuce and chopped tomato. Add a dollop of sour cream on top. Sprinkle on shredded Mexican cheese.
Suggestion: Buy a block of Mexican Queso. Cube cheese or shred. Add cheese to sauce pan and pour ¼ cup of milk in. Melt cheese on low and continue to stir. The cheese will thicken and then you can pour over your taco bowl.
Let the crock pot do the hard work. All you have left to do is prep and serve for dinner!
