Instructions
Add the chicken breasts to the slow cooker.
Add remaining ingredients (except lime juice).
Place the lid on the slow cooker and cook on LOW for 6 hours.
When the cooking time is up, shred the chicken with two forks right in the slow cooker. Squeeze the lime juice in.
Stir and serve with tortilla chips.
Notes
Variations
Make vegetarian by using 2 cans of black beans instead of the chicken.
Ground beef can be used instead of chicken - that will make a classic taco dip.
Make spicy by adding 2 diced jalapenos.
Serving Ideas
With tortilla chips for easy dipping. Or poured over tortilla chips to make nachos.
As a topping for baked potatoes.
Served over steamed rice (or Spanish rice) for a simple meal.
Used as a filling for quesadillas or burritos.
Garnish any of these ideas with diced tomatoes, fresh cilantro, or shredded cheese for added flavor.
