Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 can (10 ounces) Diced tomatoes with green chilies
- 1 can (15 ounces) Black beans, drained and rinsed
- 1 can (15 ounces) Sweet corn, drained
- 2 tablespoons Taco seasoning mix
- 1 cup Chicken broth
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Pepper
- 8 large Flour tortillas
- 1 cup Grated cheddar cheese
- 1 cup Sour cream
- 0.25 cup Fresh cilantro, chopped (optional)
- 4 pieces Lime wedges (optional)
Instructions
Place the chicken breasts into the crock pot.
Add the diced tomatoes with green chilies, black beans, sweet corn, taco seasoning, chicken broth, salt, and pepper on top of the chicken.
Stir gently to combine the ingredients, ensuring the seasoning is evenly distributed.
Cover the crock pot with the lid and cook on LOW for 6-7 hours or on HIGH for 4-5 hours, until the chicken is fully cooked and tender.
Once cooked, use two forks to shred the chicken directly in the crock pot, mixing it with the other ingredients to absorb the flavors.
Warm the flour tortillas in a microwave or skillet until soft and pliable.
Spoon a generous portion of the chicken mixture onto each tortilla, then top with grated cheddar cheese and sour cream.
Sprinkle with fresh cilantro, if desired, for a burst of flavor.
Roll the tortilla tightly into a burrito and serve immediately with lime wedges on the side.
