Chicken Tacos in the Crockpot

 
Ingredients

3 frozen chicken breasts
Pico de gallo or a can of Rotel
1 packet of chicken taco seasoning (or regular taco seasoning)
1/2 cup of olive oil
1/4 cup of water (omit water if you used an undrained can of Rotel)
Salt and Pepper to taste
Rice or beans optional (I used a can of dark red kidney beans)

Instructions:

- Sprinkle the taco seasoning onto the bottom of the crockery.

- Then place the 3 frozen chicken breasts on top of the seasoning.

- Next, pour the Rotel or pico de gallo on top of the chicken.

- Add the can of beans (optional)

- Pour the olive oil over the top of everything and then the water

Cover and cook for 4 to 5 hours.

Remove the chicken from the crockpot and pull it apart with a fork until well shredded. Then place back into the crockpot and stir ingredients. Cook for another 30 minutes.

In the meantime, cook rice on stove if using rice.

Serve over soft taco or hard taco shells with some lettuce, sour cream and shredded cheese.
