My friend Lisa gave me this recipe a few months ago and I am wondering why in the world it took me so long to try it. I totally trust her when it comes to recipes, I always love everything she makes. I absolutely love this chicken and it will be a very regular part of my menu rotation. I chose to serve it in quesadillas tonight but am looking forward to using this in tacos, burritos, salads and anything else I can think of. It is SO yummy. Try it!
Lisa's Cafe Rio Chicken
3 lbs boneless, skinless chicken
1 1/2 cups italian dressing
1 Tablespoon minced garlic
1 Tablespoon chili powder
juice of 1 lime
1/4 cup cilantro
Place chicken in a 4-6 quart slow cooker. Pour dressing over top and sprinkle with chili powder and garlic. Cover and cook for 7-8 hours on low or 3-4 hours on high. Remove chicken from crock pot, shred with a couple of forks, then put back in crock pot. Cover and cook an additional 30 minutes. Add lime juice and cilantro.
Serve in tacos, burritos, quesadillas or taco salad.
That looks amazing. I love recipes that I can use in multiple meals! and it looks freezable, which makes me want it even more!

ReplyDeleteMy stepsister recently gave me a recipe similar to this. Chicken, jar of salsa, can of corn, can of black beans. Turned out really good. We did burritos one night and put it over spanish rice the next.
