Tequila-Lime Shredded Chicken Tacos
I love Mexican food! It's fun and easy. Mexican food means fiesta time no matter what!
This recipe here? It's a winner, I'm telling ya. It really is, and I am so excited to share it with you!
I made these tacos on a whim a few weeks ago, and they turned out so amazing, but I wanted to make them again and tweak a few things (to make 'em better!!!) before I actually shared the recipe. So I made this for lunch Sunday afternoon, and tested the recipe out on my parents and brother and it was a big hit. It's super easy and super delicious!
Ingredients:
4 Organic Chicken breasts
1 Onion, rough chop
3-4 Jalapeno peppers, chopped
4 Garlic cloves, peeled and whole
2 Large tomatoes, diced or 1 16 oz. can diced tomatoes
1 4 oz. Can green chilies
1 Cup organic chicken broth
1/4 Cup lime juice
1/3 Cup tequila (optional, but why not, right?)
3 Teaspoons cumin
3 Teaspoons chili powder
Salt to taste
Directions:
Place all above ingredients in a crock pot. Set crock pot to 5 hours high or 8 hours low (depending on your time frame). After cook time is up, remove chicken from the crock pot and place in a bowl. Using two forks, shred chicken, return to crock pot, and place crock pot on warm. Build your taco using corn tortillas, shredded lettuce, cilantro, more jalapeno peppers, avocado, sour cream, greek yogurt etc.
So now that you've got the recipe, go eat yourself a taco amigo and be happy!
The End.
