Recipe 37: Salsa Chicken



  • 3 -4 chicken breasts
  • 1 (8 ounce) packet taco seasoning
  • 2 cups salsa


  • Directions:

    1. 1
      -Lightly spray the inside of the slow cooker with PAM.
    2. 2
      -Place the chicken breasts in the slow cooker
    3. 3
      -Cover the chicken with the packet of taco seasoning.
    4. 4
      -Pour the salsa on top, and smooth it out so it covers everything.
    5. 5
      -Cover and cook 8 hours on low.
    6. 6
      ***Be sure not to remove the lid at anytime, as if you do you will need to add 30 mins to cooking time. (not worth it :) )***.
    7. 7
      -When chicken is done, take 2 forks and shred the chicken and the salsa will absorb into it (also the salsa will not taste like salsa anymore, it reduces to more of a juicy sauce instead of chunky).
    8. 8
      -Serve anyway you'd like :) with rice, with tortilla chips, in a torpedo roll, or any other way you can think of!.

      This recipe was a real hit. It was so easy to make, and also inexpensive because it is so simple to make. The kids thought it was okay, but Mike and I loved it. I also thought it was pretty healthy and I love that you can customize it any way you want to.

    I just tried to leave a comment but I am not sure it worked. Anyway I LOVE this recipe! I second it as totally worth 4 stars. This was a "regular" meal when I lived at Gamma Phi Beta- it was definitely the meal I looked forward to the most!
