For a few months now, Chris and I have been looking at cars. You know, researching cost, durability, maintanence, things we both want in a car, kid proof (for later, of course), dog proof (for now!) etc. This morning it occured to me, butt warmers are not on the list of want/"need" in a new car! What am I thinking?! We may need to do some revising of neccessary perks in the vehicle we decide to get;)
From time to time, I come across something that must be shared. This certain something came from the lovely blog, Laurie B. Lowndes. Last night I made the Slow Cooker Chili Chicken Tacos she posted a few months ago. They were exactly what I hoped they would be, quick and delicious! This literally took me five minutes in the morning to put together! I mean, who doesn't like coming home to an already prepared meal? And who doesn't love delicious Mexican?! Thank you, Laurie, for the great dinner idea! The recipe comes from Martha Stewart, but I have also posted it below.
Slow Cooker Chili Chicken Tacos
2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs (about 6)
4 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
1/2 cup prepared tomato salsa, plus more for serving (optional)
1 to 2 tablespoons chopped canned chipotle chiles in adobo
1 tablespoon chili powder
Coarse salt and ground pepper
8 hard corn taco shells
Cilantro, shredded cheese, lime wedges, and sour cream, for serving (optional)
In slow cooker, combine chicken, garlic, salsa, chiles, chili powder, 1 teaspoon salt, and teaspoon pepper. Cover; cook on high, 4 hours (or on low, 8 hours).
Transfer chicken to a serving bowl, and shred, using two forks; moisten with cooking juices. Serve in taco shells, with toppings, if desired.
