Preparation
- Add half of the sliced peppers and onions to your slow cooker.
- Layer the chicken and coat all sides with taco seasoning.
- Top with garlic, the juice from one lime, and tomatoes (be sure to drain).
- Add the remaining peppers and onions, cover and any remaining lime juice.
- Cook on high for 3-4 hours.
- Remove chicken and cut/shred into slices (chicken left longer will tend to shred more - cook to your preference).
- Return the sliced chicken to the slow cooker to marinate in the juices for about 10 more minutes (on LOW) until ready to serve.
- NOTE: If you find that there is too much liquid, you can remove till there is a desired amount before serving.
- Assemble Fajitas to your liking - we recommend topping with cheese, sour cream, and guacamole!
- Enjoy!
