Lime Chicken Tacos - Slow Cooker Recipe

Once you've had these chicken tacos, you won't want to go back to beef!

This is one of my most favorite recipes!  I'm a HUGE citrus fan, and the tanginess of the lime juice, mixed with the kick of the chili powder is an awesome combination!  Add your favorite salsa to the mix and you've got a dish that is packed with flavor!  

Summer is prime time to host a festive party, and these would be great served at a party! Each person could decide if they would like a hard taco, soft taco, or make a little plate of nachos. Have fresh tomatoes, shredded cheese and lettuce, sour cream and guacamole for your guests and some fresh slices of lime to squeeze on top. Serve with some spanish rice and some yummy refried beans on the side as well. Your guests will be thrilled with all of their options!

Not having a party?  Serve these tacos up to your family, with all the fixings THEY like!  They'll love you for it!

This recipe would serve a family of 4, so feel free to double or tripple it!

I have made this before and not only does it taste great but it is so easy and you typically have the ingredients on hand. I also throw in some cilantro, we love it!

Hugo... the road, bridge, road right of way: The Road Commission for Oakland County (RCOC)... theRead More aesthetic black fence... Rochester Hills... let's assume there waiting for an insurance claim to go through or debating who pays. Thanks for your post. You could call the Mayor, but he is in Istanbul Turkey... looking over some plans for a new shopping mall they want to build in an historic park. Makes perfectly good sense this is the same Mayor who supported tearing down a historic house on Rochester Road to build a new strip mall... and turning Office Research Technology zoning into a Wal-Mart.

Yes I have been wondering too...I am going to use the RCOC website and see if they will respond
