Crock Pot Chicken Tacos are what my taco-loving dreams are all about. They are conveniently made in the crock pot, so they’re easy to make and full of flavor! 

Crock Pot Chicken Tacos are so flavorful and delicious and only require 5 ingredients to make. Life-in-the-Lofthouse.com

I’ve added a new recipe to my beloved Mexican food favorites and these lovely Chicken Tacos are it! They are so good and only require 4 ingredients. Five ingredients if you use the black beans, which I highly recommend, and that’s including the chicken. It really doesn’t get any easier than this, my friends.

I have two other ‘Mexican’ chicken recipes already on the blog that are made in the crock pot. Like this Cafe Rio Chicken and Bajio Chicken. We love them both and make them all the time, especially when we have guests over, because they make a lot and are so yummy!

  1. These look delicious! I am considering getting a slow cooker in a week or two– do you have one that you would recommend?

  2. We had these for dinner tonight and they were so great! So excited all my fan is coming to town and I can show off with the leftovers. 🙂

  3. I have made this, but added a can of refreid beans and cream cheese. You can even use them for an enchilada filling.
