Slow Cooker Chicken Fajitas

April 5, 2017 By Deanna Piercy 4 Comments

I believe every busy homemaker could benefit from a few easy slow cooker recipes for those hectic days. I’m especially fond of the recipes that don’t require any browning first. That’s why this Slow Cooker Chicken Fajitas recipe is a winner with me. It only takes a few minutes to prepare and then the slow cooker does all the rest of the work. And it’s delicious!

It’s nice to serve these with Mexican rice and perhaps a salad. But in a pinch, chips and salsa will do. The night I took this photo was one of “those days” and I didn’t even bother to cut up lettuce and tomato. They were still yummy, though.

Slow Cooking For Two

I have a slow cooker which I’ve had for many years but I am also loving my Instant Pot. Not only is it a pressure cooker but it can also be used as a slow cooker. The best part is that it also has a sauté feature so I can brown meat in it first then switch to slow cooker. That means one less pan to wash…always a good thing!
