Ingredients<\/h3>\n

\n
• 1 pound boneless skinless chicken tenderloins<\/li>\n
• 1 green bell pepper, sliced<\/li>\n
• 1 medium yellow onion, sliced<\/li>\n
• 1\/2 cup frozen white corn<\/li>\n
• 1 can diced tomatoes, undrained<\/li>\n
• 1 packet taco seasoning (or 1\/4 cup homemade seasoning**)<\/li>\n
• 1\/4 cup butter (doesn’t need to be melted)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

  **Homemade Taco Seasoning<\/h4>\n

  \n
  • 1 Tbs. chili powder<\/li>\n
  • 1\/4 tsp onion powder<\/li>\n
  • 1\/2 tsp garlic powder<\/li>\n
  • 2 tsp cumin<\/li>\n
  • 1\/2 tsp dried oregano<\/li>\n
  • 1\/4 tsp cayenne pepper (can be omitted if your family likes think mild…boring.\u00a0 I jest.)<\/li>\n
  • 1\/2-1 tsp smoked paprika<\/li>\n
  • 1 tsp sea salt (less if using table salt!)<\/li>\n
  • 1 tsp black pepper<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    This is definitely a starter recipe as it can be adjusted one million and one ways to suit your preferences.\u00a0 This makes about 3 Tbs of seasoning (I use a little over 2 Tbs per 1 pound of meat) so I will often double it and keep it in the cupboard to have on hand.<\/p>\n

    Directions<\/h3>\n

    \n
    1. Add frozen chicken and butter to crockpot and sprinkle with taco seasoning.<\/li>\n
    2. Add veggies and diced tomatoes on top of chicken.<\/li>\n
    3. Cook on low for 6-8 hours or high for 4 hours.\u00a0 Shred chicken about an hour before serving to allow the meat to marinate in the juices.<\/li>\n
    4. Serve with your choice of tortillas and toppings.\u00a0 My family loves a little dollop of sour cream and shredded cheese.\u00a0 You know.\u00a0 Like the locals eat it.<\/li>\n
    5. That’s it.\u00a0 Seriously.\u00a0 That’s it.<\/li>\n
    6. Eat.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

       Enjoy!<\/p>\n
