Flavorful and delicious – This Baja Chicken Taco recipe is SUPER easy to make thanks to the slow cooker or crock pot! Featuring ultra-tender beer braised chicken with creamy baja sauce. Pile it high in charred corn tortillas with slaw for an easy taco night. Or use it in soups, salads, casseroles, burrito bowls and so much more – the sky is the limit with this incredibly flavorful Baja chicken!
Featured comment: Thank you for this recipe!!! It is fabulous! So many crockpot chicken taco recipes online require a jar of salsa (which I did not have on hand)… which led me to a google search and discovering your recipe. I marinated the meat overnight and this will be my go-to recipe from now on! Happy Cinco de Mayo!” – Meredith
