How to make crockpot salsa chicken

This easy dinner is very easy to make….. Just toss everything in the crock pot. We actually keep our chicken breasts frozen.

Let it cook all day – about 6-8 hours on low or 3-4 hours on high.

Then just simply remove the chicken and shred it. That is literally all you do!

It is that easy to make!

    Super easy! There was enough to have tacos for dinner and then burritos for lunch the next day.

    This looks amazing and so simple. I live using my crock pot at this time of year. Will be trying this tonight!!

    Easy, tasty recipe. I use a 16 oz. jar of hot salsa; otherwise no other changes. Like the option of having extra liquid to pour over rice. Try this chicken (drained) on tostada shells topped with shredded lettuce & chopped fresh tomatoes. Even better is shredded cabbage and thinly sliced radishes, a la central Mexico style.

  10. There’s no recipe listed to print, only a photo. Can you re-post because I want to add this to my collection.
    Thank you!

  12. Trying it for dinner tonight. I’ve made something like this but with cream of chicken. Tasted even more amazing!

  13. Add one packet of dry taco seasoning and a whole jar of salsa and serve on a tortilla with cheese…it is AMAZING!
