This is my new favorite way to have chicken tacos! So good. I use a whole chicken, remove all the meat and add one can of black beans and some corn. It's even better as for lunch the next day!!!

Oh-so-good!!! I'm eating it right now (leftovers)and I'm so satisfied. I forgot the to get the peppers, but there were plenty in the extra chunky salsa I used. Also, I seasoned the chicken with salt and pepper before cooking. Don't forget the sour cream! =)

Sometimes my chicken slow-cooker dishes turn out watery...this was perfect when cooked high for 3 hours. I add a couple of tablespoons peanut butter and 1 plus T unsweetened cocoa to make this a mole'. It is wonderful.

Delicious. I replaced a cup of the salsa with a can of rotel and added a half cup of water to the pot. This made the whole house smell good and tasted great served with a tortilla,
