Slow cooker cilantro lime chicken tacos

I am wary of dump and go recipes that claim that a recipe is astoundingly good.  Very wary.  I mean, let’s be honest here, wouldn’t any recipe benefit from a little preparation such as searing meat or frying a little onion or garlic?

To my complete and utter amazement, I did manage to find a recipe which indeed was a dump and go recipe, and honestly, it tasted AWESOME.  This one is so easy to prepare it will have you sitting on the sofa drinking a hot drink in minutes.

I found the recipe on www.belleofthekitchen.com, and adapted it to fit my Crockpot Multicooker which is 5.6 litre in size.  We ate one portion and I froze another two in ziplock bags, ready to be served next time.

Here’s the exact recipe and cooking instructions I used to cook up these ‘Slow cooker cilantro lime chicken tacos’, for you all to enjoy!
