Cilantro Lime Chicken - Crockpot

I am such a HUGE fan of chicken crockpot recipes that aren't smothered in cream sauces!  Do you remember my 3 ingredients recipe called  CROCKPOT CHICKEN SALSA?  I think I got the most feedback from that recipes saying how much they loved the recipe not only because it was sooo darn easy, but because it tasted sooo darn good!  Well this recipe is basically that recipe.... on Steroids..... minus the black beans....  Get it?  This will spice it up a bit, and give it a little bit of tang that changes it enough to call it another name!  Enjoy!  Oh and yes, this was inspired by Pinterest!


Cilantro Lime Chicken - Crockpot

About 4 boneless chicken breasts
1 small jar of your favorite salsa
juice from 1 lime
1 packet of taco seasoning
1/4 Cup chopped cilantro
1 jalapeno - finely chopped (optional)
Tortillas - I use corn (gluten free & less carbs)

Just add all the bottom ingredients in your crockpot and mix it really well.  Add your chicken breasts on top.  Set your crockpot on low for 4-6 hours.  When ready, shred your chicken and put back in the crockpot and let marinate for about 10 minutes.  Then add to heated tortillas with melted cheese, with your favorite toppings such as sour cream, avocado and fresh cilantro!  Enjoy!
