Easy Budget Mexican Slow Cooker Chicken Recipes

SLOW COOKER MEXICAN CHICKEN

Slow Cooker Mexican Chicken image

Feel free to adjust the spices as you prefer. Make it more or less spicy. Add oregano or change the cumin amount, etc.. You can also just replace the spices for 1 bag of taco seasoning if you prefer. Chicken thigh or leg meat will be juicer than breast meat, but if you prefer, the breast meat still comes out quite nice. We'll usually prefer boneless, skinless chicken, but feel free to use whatever is available to you.

Ingredients

2 pounds chicken (, preferrably boneless, skinless (*see head note))
1 cup tomato sauce ( or salsa)
