Ingredients

  • 4-5 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup beer (Corona, Modelo, or any Mexican beer is preferred)
  • 3 tbsp taco seasoning (chef's choice)
  • 1 cup salsa (chef's choice)

Instructions

  • Place all ingredients into slow cooker. Stir to combine.
  • Cook on high for at least 2 hours, or low for at least 4. Once chicken reaches internal temperature of 165 degrees fahrenheit it is fully cooked.
  • Do not drain liquid- shred chicken and combine with slow cooker liquid. Serve as desired and enjoy!

Notes

Note: This is a family friendly recipe- any alcohol in the beer will cook out in the slow cooker.
 

Use a hand mixer for perfectly shredded chicken!

  • Be cautious when doing this- warm liquid can splatter, so start slow and be careful…You have been warned! : )
