Day 5...Lime Chicken Tacos

I know what you're thinking, "why would I choose food for my diy project?"  I know this isn't crafty but I wanted to start finding more ideas for cooking.  I always end up making the same thing over and over, so decided to find a few things on pinterest.  I found Lime Chicken Tacos and they were soooo good.  I got this picture off pinterest because my picture didn't do this dish justice.  Try out this recipe:

Ingredients

  • 1-1/2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 3 tablespoons lime juice
  • 1 tablespoon chili powder
  • 1 cup frozen corn
  • 1 cup chunky salsa
  • 12 flour tortillas (6 inches), warmed
  • Sour cream, shredded cheddar cheese and shredded lettuce, optional

Directions

  • Place the chicken in a 3-qt. slow cooker. Combine lime juice and chili powder; pour over chicken. Cover and cook on low for 5-6 hours or until chicken is tender.
  • Remove chicken; cool slightly. Shred meat with two forks and return to the slow cooker; heat through. Stir in corn and salsa.
  • Cover and cook on low for 30 minutes or until heated through. Serve in tortillas with sour cream, cheese and lettuce if desired. Yield: 12 tacos.
