Easy Crockpot Pulled Chicken

1 Comment
  • 1 pound of chicken (breast meat is preferred)
  • 1 packet of Taco seasoning (or mix up your own)
  • 1 jar of your favorite salsa (can certainly use fresh)
  • Salt & pepper

Clean chicken, season with salt, and pepper. Place seasoned chicken, salsa, and taco seasoning into crockpot. Set on high for four hours, or low for six. Chicken should pull easily with two forks. Stir, and add additional seasoning, as needed. Often times I’ll add sriracha for a bit more heat.

I made it, now how do I eat it/what do I pair it with?

  • Serve warm, as an entree with sides like macaroni salad, or potato salad.
  • Toss the chicken into soft, or hard taco shells. Top with your favorite taco seasonings.
  • This chicken also works well served on Kings Hawaiian buns, topped with cheese.
  • Want something healthier? Top a salad with this as the protein!
  • Make pulled chicken EMPANADAS!

Chicken Gabriel: Oven Baked Chicken Breast with Mozzarella and Prosciutto

Leave a comment

Ingredients:

Directions:

Butterfly chicken breast using a sharp filet knife. This can be done from frozen, and likely can make 3 cutlets from each breast. Lightly pound cutlets, to equal thickness. Doing so will cook the chicken evenly. Once completed, place on a baking pan, in a single layer, and set aside.

In a skillet, sauté onion in olive oil, then add shallot. When golden brown, add butter, and flour. Once thick, add stock, and allow to reduce for a few minutes. Season to taste.

Preheat oven to 400º. Lightly season each cutlet, top with a slice of prosciutto, and then cheese. Add stock reduction, then bake for about 15 minutes. Serve hot.

Serves 5-6

Side pairing ideas: Roasted garlic & rosemary potatoes. Sautéed green beans. See sides page for more info.
