- 2 lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts
- 14.5 oz tomatoes with green chili peppers or fire roasted tomatoes (I used fire roasted because that is what I had - YUM!)
- 4 bell peppers sliced in thin strips
- 1 large yellow onion sliced in thin strips
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 2 Tablespoons Homemade Taco Seasoning click for the recipe
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- black pepper to taste
- 1 Tablespoon Optional: honey
- Optional toppings: brown rice, fresh lime, avocado, cheese and Greek Yogurt
- Optional: corn or flour tortillas for serving
Mix honey into can of tomatoes, if using. Pour 1/2 of the can of tomatoes in the Crock Pot.
Top with 1/2 of the the sliced bell peppers and onions. Sprinkle in the minced garlic and add chicken breast on top of veggies.
Season one side of the chicken with 1 Tbsp taco seasoning, flip and sprinkle remaining tablespoon over the other side. Pour the rest of the tomatoes and veggies on top of the chicken.
Cover, cook on low heat for 6 hours or on high for 3-4 hours.
Remove chicken, cut into strips or shred. You can ladle out some of the broth if your fajitas are too soupy.
Serve in warmed tortillas and top with fresh lime juice and Greek Yogurt or make a fajita bowl like we did! I used brown rice, fresh lime, avocado, cheese and Greek Yogurt.
