Slow Cooker Lime Chicken Tacos
Tacos with the most luscious chicken filling straight from your slow cooker.
I never get tired of having tacos. The biggest reason is because I can also experiment the filling and go as wild as I want with it. I can choose from pork, beef, chicken and even fish and veggies depending on my mood.
Now for today, I have been craving for chicken for a week. And this taco recipe has completely blown me away. The lime is so perfect for the chicken. Once you take a bite, you will certainly go for a next round.
