This recipe is a frequent one at our home, and is always slightly different. It's a combination of a whole bunch of different recipes I've seen and is a good recipe for our family's tastes. I keep the spices about the same, but sometimes I don't have peppers or beans so they are left out. This is a good base for our favorite easy, yummy, crockpot tacos.
Ingredients:
2-3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1-2 bell peppers (red, yellow, green, orange, whatever I have), sliced in thin strips
1 onion, sliced in thin strip or rings
1 can blacks beans (or 2 cups cooked)
2-3 tomatoes, diced (or 1 can of diced tomatoes, or 1 cup of whatever salsa we have)
1 heaping tablespoon cumin
1 heaping tablespoon oregano
1 heaping tablespoon chili powder
1 heaping tablespoon garlic salt
Juice of 1 lime (I freeze extra when I have limes on hand and freeze it in ice cube trays; one frozen cube is what I use if I don't have fresh)
Combine everything except the lime juice in the crockpot and cook on low for 6-8 hours (or less depending on your crockpot). When finished cooking, shred the chicken, add the lime juice, and serve on tortillas with any toppings you like. It's also yummy to use for taco salad over chips, or just over rice.
