Crock Pot Salsa Chicken

CROCk POT SALSA CHICKEN

All you need are 2 simple ingredients to make this slow cooker shredded chicken -- good salsa and chicken!

PREP: 1 MIN COOK: 4 HOURS TOTAL: 4 HOURS 1 MIN

INGREDIENTS:

• 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts*
• 2 cups favorite salsa
• salt and pepper
• (optional: fresh lime wedges for serving)

DIRECTIONS:

Place chicken breasts in a slow cooker and cover with salsa. Toss until the chicken is covered.

Cover and cook on high for 4 hours (or low for 6-8 hours), or until the chicken shreds easily with a fork. Shred the chicken in the slow cooker and toss with the remaining salsa and juices until well-mixed. Serve immediately, or refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 5 days. (This chicken also freezes well.)

*You can really use just about any cut of chicken for this recipe. For easy shredding though (so that you don't have to mess with bones), I recommend boneless chicken breasts or thighs.
