When I don't have much time to cook supper, slow cooker chicken fajitas are a flavorful way to keep my family full and satisfied. If you aren't cooking for young tastes, try spicing things up with medium or hot picante sauce.
Ingredients:
1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts
1 can (15 ounces) black beans, rinsed and drained
1 medium green pepper, cut into strips
1 large onion, sliced
1-1/2 cups picante sauce
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
12 flour tortillas (6 inches), warmed
2 cups (8 ounces) shredded cheddar cheese
optional toppings: sour cream, sliced ripe olives and thinly sliced green onions
Directions:
1. Place chicken in a 4-qt. slow cooker; add black beans, pepper and onion. In a small bowl, mix picante sauce, garlic powder and cumin; pour over top. Cook, covered, on low 4-5 hours or until chicken is tender.
2. Remove chicken and cool slightly. Shred meat with two forks and return to slow cooker; heat through. Serve with tortillas, cheese and toppings of your choice. Yield: 6 servings.
