Top with garlic, the juice from one lime, and tomatoes (be sure to drain).
Add the remaining peppers and onions, cover and any remaining lime juice.
Cook on high for 3-4 hours.
Remove chicken and cut/shred into slices (chicken left longer will tend to shred more - cook to your preference).
Return the sliced chicken to the slow cooker to marinate in the juices for about 10 more minutes (on LOW) until ready to serve.

Time 3h25m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 red bell pepper
1 yellow bell pepper
1 green bell pepper
1 yellow onion
1 -2 lb boneless skinless chicken breast, cut in half
2 tablespoons taco seasoning
4 garlic cloves, diced
1 lime
1 (10 ounce) can diced tomatoes and green chilies, drained
tortilla
cheese (optional)
sour cream (optional)
guacamole (optional)

Steps:

Slice the bell peppers and the onion.
In the slow cooker place half the bell peppers and half the onion.
Place the chicken breasts in the slow cooker. Liberally sprinkle the taco seasoning, garlic, juice from half the lime, and the tomatoes over the chicken.
Place the remaining bell peppers and onion over the chicken.
Squeeze the juice from the rest of the lime over the layers.
Cook everything in the slow cooker on high for 3 hours.
Using prongs, take the chicken out and slice or shred it (I recommend using a standing mixer to shred the chicken to the desired size and consistency).
Mix back into the slow cooker and cook everything for another 10 minutes.
Serve over the tortillas with cheese, sour cream, and guacamole as desired.
