This is a super easy family favorite.
Three ingredients:
3-4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
1 packet or 1/4 cup of your favorite taco seasoning
1 packet or three Tablespoons of your favorite dry ranch seasoning
if desired up to 1 cup of water or chicken broth
(if using an Instant Pot definitely include 1 cup of water or broth)
I always spray my pan with oil for easier clean-up.
Place all ingredients in a 4 qt. slow cooker.
For a slow cooker:
Cook 3-4 hours on high
or
6-8 hours on low
For an Instant Pot:
30 min on manual
For the Slow Cooker:
If I'm home I like to turn the chicken over half-way through cooking.
It's not necessary.
After cooking shred your chicken.
The easiest and quickest way to do this is with a stand up mixer.
After it is shredded, place the chicken back in the slow cooker.
Don't over shred!
Mix thoroughly in the sauce.
You can also make it in a frying pan or with leftover rotisserie chicken.
We like our tacos on a flour shell with warmed refried beans, avocado, salsa, and cheese.
You might also like onions, tomatoes, sour cream, peppers and/or a corn tortilla.
Fold in half or burrito style.
My girls love these tacos, and it is something they can make themselves.
