Slow Cook Enchilada Chicken Tacos

View Recipe  • Print Recipe

Another easy taco recipe cooked int he slow cooker.  This time it is chicken enchilada flavored.  Can a taco be enchilada flavored?  I say yes, yes, it can…..and it was. You gotta go for it and try out this Enchilada Chicken Tacos recipe!!

Slow cooking makes the flavors intensify by like 1000.  Well, maybe not 1000 but it is way more flavor than marinating and cooking on the grill or in a skillet. Plus it is nice to come home to dinner 80% done.  Just shred the meat and dress the tacos.  Easy!

This is great to make in big batches and freeze for even easier go-to dinners on super lazy busy nights.

Do you like your tacos crunchy or soft?  Crunchy for me, please.
