SLOW COOKER CHICKEN FAJITAS

Slow Cooker Chicken Fajitas image

I searched high and low for a great recipe for slow cooker fajitas before I came up with this. The best part for me is that I don't have to defrost the meat before I throw it in there. Also, this makes a very large batch, so it's good for big families or a crowd of guests.

Ingredients

1 red bell pepper, sliced
1 yellow bell pepper, sliced
1 green bell pepper, sliced
1 yellow onion, sliced
2 lb boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut in half
2 tablespoons taco seasoning
4 cloves garlic, diced

Steps:

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.
NOTE: If you find that there is too much liquid, you can remove till there is a desired amount before serving.
Assemble Fajitas to your liking - we recommend topping with cheese, sour cream, and guacamole!
Enjoy!
