Confession: This week is crazy.

What week isn’t crazy, you ask?

I’m not sure anymore!

Anyway, I wouldn’t even call this meal a recipe…it’s more like opening a jar and turning on a Crock Pot or Instant Pot. But it tastes delicious and that’s all that matters.

The possibilities are endless, so make enough Salsa Lime Chicken for the whole insane week ahead.

Love mine over zoodles!

How to make Crock Pot salsa lime chicken:

1 .  Throw some boneless, skinless chicken breasts in a Crock Pot.

2. Add a jar of  Salsa – look for an organic brand that doesn’t have added sugar.

3.  Cook on low for 4-6 hours, then squeeze on some fresh lime, and shred the chicken.

How to make Instant Pot Salsa Lime Chicken

1. Throw some boneless, skinless chicken breasts in the instant pot.

2. Add a jar of  Salsa – look for an organic brand that doesn’t have added sugar.

3.  Cook on poultry button or 15 minutes on manual, then squeeze on some fresh lime, and shred the chicken.

And that’s it. No matter your method- So. Dang. Easy.

What can I make with this Salsa Lime Chicken?

The bonus – this is SO versatile.  Serve it in tacos (be sure to use my taco seasoning), make a Flatbread pizza, make some Taquitos or layer it over rice, zoodles or spaghetti squash.

How do I count this for 21 Day Fix or Weight Watchers?

For the 21 Day fix measure using your RED container- I count it as 1 RED and 1/2 GREEN

For Weight Watchers this Salsa Lime Chicken is ZERO points!
