Easy Slow Cooker Salsa Chicken

This is so good an easy! I’ve made variations of this before but I really likes the simple seasonings in this one. I use about 2 lb frozen chicken and the salsa was a tomatillo and chipotle pepper salsa. YUM! Save the juice and add a little back to the chicken after shredding it. Then save the rest of the juice to use in a soup or chili or additional flavor in other dishes like rice!

Great recipe for chicken! We made a bunch of rice in the rice cooker after we got home from work, and then we steamed up some green beans. This recipe gave us some tasty leftovers to garner some envy at the office. We used mild Pace Picante sauce for our weaker tastebuds, but we're stepping it up to medium next time.

This is a great, simple recipe! I have been making a version with JUST chicken and salsa (your choice of heat) in the crockpot. Nothing else. After shredding, I add a bar of cream cheese! Serve over rice. Yummm!!!

This was a big hit! We had it over rice. I loved how easy this was.! Will definitely make this again. Next time I may spruce it up more by adding roasted corn, black beans, shredded cheese and avocado.

My new go to! So easy, healthy and delicious. Is it a soup, a dip, a filling? Doesn’t matter, it’s good in any form. Super yummy on tortilla chips.

This was very good! Served it on flour tortillas with grated cheese, chopped tomatoes, guac and shredded lettuce.

So easy, tender and delicious! We had tacos the first night and enchiladas the second. Will definitely make again!

This is a weeknight winner for sure. It's really easy. I do recommend cooking for half an hour less than the time stated in the recipe -- my mom always told me to do that with slow cooker recipes and the chicken would have been a little overcooked if I hadn't. I added black beans and ate this in flour tortillas and it was delicious!

Added diced tomatoes and chili powder. Very tasty

This was delicious! Even my kids liked it. I used Herdez mild salsa.

We really liked it. We used it in tacos, burritos, a main dish with rice and grated cheese on top and even for breakfast on a tortilla with an egg on top. There’s only 2 of us so we can get several meals out of it. I’m allergic to cumin so I don’t use that. Even added drained black beans to use on a taco salad.

I leave out the cumin and add in a package of taco seasoning. But I love this recipe. It is super delicious and everyone loves it on taco night? Great in a taco, as part of nachos or eat straight from a bowl.

Love this simple recipe! Since I’m making it for the first time, I didn’t change anything (like I usually do). I plan to use the leftovers for empanadas or calzones. Tonight I’ll be serving the chicken with Spanish rice and sautéed peppers and onions.

Idk what happened to my review. Disappeared off the screen so let's try this again. Go with this version. Makes very nice soft chicken tacos. I would recommend covering after it cools - do not drain ! - and put it in the fridge over night. The flavors become much more developed that way since it basically marinates until the next day. When we made leftovers, I also added a squeeze of lime juice and a little cilantro. So good. The only changes I made were to leave out the chiles ( because I'm a wimp when it comes to spicy) and using chicken tenders instead of breasts since that's what I had. Only cooked for 4 hours and they were perfectly done. By the way, this chicken is so juicy. There's no way it can dry out or burn in the slow cooker. Give it a try

As another reviewer noted, I added a can of diced tomatoes. Also, you might want to use two tortillas when you make a soft taco with this as it is very juicy!! Mucho bueno!!

Loved it. I used rotisserie chicken breasts so didn’t use slow cooker. Added a can of black beans (did not have a can of roasted corn or I would have added that as well). Added some cooked quinoa, chopped onion and shredded cheese on top. Quick and healthy, thanks.
