Recipe Time

Tried out a new recipe this weekend and man alive, it was TASTY (and spicy). Here goes:

CHILI LIME CHICKEN TACOS
4 boneless/skinless/fatless chicken breasts
5-6 small limes
1 heaping teaspoon of chili powder
garlic salt
black pepper
1 jar of salsa or green chili salsa
Frozen corn

Garlic salt and pepper the chicken breasts and put them in a crock pot. Juice all 5-6 limes. Add the chili powder to the lime juice and mix.

Pour lime juice mixture over chicken breasts. Cook in crock pot on low for 5-6 hours (my only complaint was I ended up cooking the chicken longer and the chicken became kinda mushy).

Shred chicken and add it back to the juice that is still left in crock pot. Add jar of salsa (I used 505 brand of green chili salsa - picture below - 140 calories for the ENTIRE JAR) and a couple of handfuls of frozen corn. Cook on low for another 30 minutes.

Eat with fat free or whole grain/wheat tortillas, lots of tomatoes, fat free sour cream, and a little cheese (you really don't need a lot of cheese, if any).

Enjoy!
(I think this is the BEST brand of this type of salsa out there!)
