MANGO CHICKEN TACOS!
This is one of my family favorites and weekly go to recipes!
It's SO easy and delicious!
It's SO easy and delicious!
You will need:
Mango salsa
{i use the one from costco - it's mango peach}
crock pot
chicken
{I use frozen chicken}
sour cream *optional*
I used three chicken breast for this meal
{which will feed 4-6 people}
I put them in the crock pot straight from frozen
I add 1/2 cup of mango salsa on top of each breast
I set the timer for high for 4 hours
*you can set it on low for 8 if you are going to be gone all day*
after and hour I flip the chicken over - this isn't necessary but is a one of those weird habits for me!
The last 1/2 hour I shred the chicken using two forks right in the crock pot
it will look really watery at first but all the juice will absorb in the chicken the last 30 min of cooking!
As an option you can add a spoonful of light sour cream to your chicken for a creamy taste!
stir it around and continue cooking the remaining 30 min
looks good huh? mmm yum~!
DING
after your cooking time you are all ready to serve!
use your choice of corn or flour tortillas
easy enough right?
Don't forget to add your favorite toppings to the table :)
*green salsa for the hubs to add a kick
*cheese for me and the kids *lettuce and olives are also a big hit!
ENJOY!

ReplyDeleteyum!!! i will make this purely because i know i will eat all of it myself if noone else cares for it, hahahaha! but we love taco and enchilada variations around here so i'm sure this would be a great hit! i love SIMPLE, yet DELICIOUS those are my fave kind of recipes. ;D
ReplyDeleteYUM! I'm going to try this!! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteWe make this all the time! Not with mango though, but YUM that sounds good. I serve it on rice, I've heard its good with the corn and black bean salsa from WM too, but haven't tried that salsa either.. :)

OOooo fab...I never thought of using a flavored salsa, but that's brilliant! I'm a huge slow cooker fan...I have a couple of really easy recipes like this on my blog if you're in need of inspiration (and if you haven't visited the Year of Slow Cooking blog, you must check it out)!
