Ingredients (4)

For safe meat preparation, reference the USDA website.

Steps (4)

  1. 1

    In a slow cooker, combine all ingredients and stir.

  2. 2

    Cover and cook on low for 5 hours.

  3. 3

    Shred the chicken with two forks. Return to the slow cooker. Stir and cook uncovered for 1 more hour on low.

  4. 4

    Serve in tacos, on nachos, over salad or rice, or plain.

    1. 1
      Place all ingredients in the inner pot of your multi-cooker and stir together. Turn on the multi-cooker and secure lid, setting pressure valve to “sealing.”
    2. 2
      Select “manual” or “pressure cook,” and cook on high-pressure for 10 minutes. Select “cancel” to turn off the machine.
    3. 3
      Allow the pressure valve to natural pressure release at least 10 minutes, then quick-release pressure by turning the seal to “venting.” Remove chicken and shred with two forks.
    4. 4
      Switch multi-cooker to sauté mode. Add chicken back in and cook, stirring, until warmed through. Serve in tacos, on nachos, over salad or rice, or on its own.

    * Always follow manufacturer’s instructions.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Best Chicken tacos! I love this recipe and I make it often when are expecting company or for family game night. It's so quick and easy to make, and the ranch seasoning gives an extra punch. Yum!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great taste The slow cooker keeps the chicken juicy and moist. It is just easier to shred when cooked this way and the ranch dressing helps to add the flavoring needed.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Awesome for lunch or dinner I use the crock pot for this recipe, it is very versatile to add items your family loves. Cook all day on low, come home to a delicious dinner. Use fajita shells, hard tacos, taco bowls cooked in the oven, or frito salad.
