We love this recipe! So easy to make and very delicious. I like to add more corn and a little bit of chili powder to give it some kick! We think its great, especially for winter!

This was very good as both dinner and leftovers. With skinless breast meat you definitely want to go with the shorter times, otherwise it tends to be a bit dry. Substituting boneless skinless thighs gives a bit more flavor and moisture for the meat if you don't mind darker meat. Very easy, will make again.

We used tortilla's and rolled up the tex mex along with rice and sour cream. It was very good. I did use the entire package of taco seasoning and it wasn't too spicy. The kids asked for more. Will make again and again.

My family loved this recipe. The next day, I placed the leftovers in a pie dish and poured prepared cornbread mix over it and baked as directed on cornbread package. Delicious!

Made this last night and husband loved it! I cooked it on high for a little less than 3 hours and that was too long, so next time it will shorten cooking time or prepare it in the skillet.
