Slow Cooker Smoky Mexican Chicken Dipping Tacos

Inspired by the flavours and dipping style tacos you’d normally associate with birria, this version uses slow cooked shredded chicken in a rich spiced tomato and chipotle sauce. The chicken cooks until tender, then gets crisped up in cheesy tacos with extra sauce on the side for dipping. I have listed an alternative cooking method if you do not have a slow cooker and the chicken can be prepped ahead!

Step 1

Start by adding the chopped onion and tomatoes to the base of the slow cooker. Place the chicken breasts directly on top of the vegetables. In a jug, mix together the chicken stock, garlic, tomato purée, vinegar, cumin, smoked paprika, oregano, cinnamon, chipotle paste, smoked chilli flakes, and a good pinch of salt and black pepper.

Great flavour but would add the extra chipotle next time for a bit more heat

Super easy to make and I made extra to freeze for either another meal like this or to use the chicken mix with pasta for lunch. Lovely soft smoky flavour.

I felt the sauce was a bit runny so would add less stock next time as it prevented the tacos going crispy when fried however it was so so so tasty!!! Made for 4 people so I can have for lunches next 2 days aswell!
