Crock Pot Chicken Fajitas on flour tortillas with cheese.

Blue Ribbon Recipe

This fajita recipe is such a time saver. Put all the ingredients in a slow cooker, turn it on, and forget about it. The chicken turns out tender and easy to shred. Once shredded, it goes back into the Crock Pot to mingle with the sauce. Spooned onto the tortillas, it makes really flavorful fajitas. These will be great if you're serving a crowd. Set up a fajita bar with the chicken and toppings and let everyone create their own.

How To Make crock pot chicken fajitas

Test Kitchen Tips

Every slow cooker is different. We suggest checking the chicken after 5 hours since some cook faster. Also, serve the chicken with a slotted spoon to remove the juices before placing it on the tortilla.

Step 1

Add the onion and pepper to the bottom of a slow cooker.

Step 2

Add the green chilies.
Step 3

Arrange the chicken breasts on top.
Step 4

Sprinkle the fajita seasoning over the chicken.
Step 5

Top with the enchilada sauce.
Step 6

Cover and cook on high for approximately 6 hours.
Step 7

Remove the chicken breasts from the slow cooker and shred them.
Step 8

Add the chicken back to vegetables and mix everything together.
Step 9

Serve on warmed flour tortillas, with cheddar cheese, sour cream, and whatever else you like.
