Easy Slow Cooker Chicken Fajitas



  Servings – about 6

Wow!  Is this ever yummy!  And it's easy!  You can double it to serve a crowd!  What's not to like?  You can make it as spicy (or not) as  you like by adjusting the amount of fajita seasoning and spiciness of the salsa.   I served this alongside skillet Mexican beans, corn, and rice.


INGREDIENTS:
1 ½ pounds boneless chicken breast, cut into strips
 (or same amount of chicken tenders or cutlets)
1 large green pepper, seeded, cored & cut into strips
1 large red pepper, seeded, cored & cut into strips
1 large sweet onion, sliced
1 package (envelope) fajita seasoning mix
¾ cup your favorite salsa
1 package flour tortillas

Toppings:  guacamole, sour cream, shredded cheese, diced tomatoes, shredded lettuce, green onions

DIRECTIONS:
Lightly spray slow cooker with cooking spray
Add the peppers and onions
Put the chicken over the pepper/onion mixture
Stir together fajita seasoning mix and salsa & pour over the chicken
Cover and cook on Low for 7 to 8 hours
Shred the chicken with two forks and stir to combine well
Wrap the tortillas in foil and heat in 325 degree F oven for a few minutes to warm.

When ready to serve, place some chicken mixture on a tortilla; add desired toppings, roll it up and eat!
