Just made this last night and it was very good!
Being a turkey farmer I used turkey breast and added a bit more “heat”

Can someone help me? How much chicken – by weight – would you use for this recipe? I want to make large quantities to freeze for a wedding dinner. My research shows the amounts in the recipe to differ greatly: 3-4 breasts would equal 24-48 oz whereas 5-6 thighs would be approximately 16 oz. Also, I’m also planning to use a mix of breasts and thighs, and it would be a lot easier to adjust the recipe by weight rather than number of chicken pieces!

If you were to do this using a whole chicken, would you increase the seasonings? I almost never buy pre-cut chicken…I get organic whole chickens to save money! I love cooking whole chickens in the crock pot. 🙂

Would you be able to add fajita veggies to this recipe? Like onion, peppers, mushrooms etc? If so, would they need to be precooked? Added later? Or should they just be cooked later?

I tried this with pork and made stuffed sweet potatoes. I only made a half batch since there wasn’t as much meat. Everyone loved it.

In reply to Tina. The chili seasoning that isn't spicy

I just put this in the crockpot..can’t wait to try. However, I have a question…when you say ‘chili powder,’ do you mean a chili seasoning blend or just the red chili pepper powder? I feel that everyone uses these terms interchangeably. My husband is from India, so our chili powder means hot chilies!

My hubby and I LOVE this!! We wrap the meat up in lettuce leaves with some cheese and tomatoes and devour!! It’s spicy, but not to the point where it takes away from the taste! This is a regular in our house, thank you!!!

a great way to shred chicken after it’s cooked is in your kitchen aid mixer. It works great and is so much easier and faster than shredding with a fork.

This is now in our regular rotation! It’s a great base chicken for so many different dishes, and wonderful simply in a salad. Thanks!

Delicious! I added chicken stock to help keep the meat moist. And then made taquitos with the meat. Sooooo easy!

Great recipe, thanks so much for sharing! Was definitely a crowd pleaser. I did omit cumin and cut in half the spices for chili powder and pepper but it still had great flavor. Even my preschooler ate it! 🙂

Love shredded meat for versatile and easy dishes. Thanks for the reminder! I’ll have to do this soon. 🙂

This is a great recipe that I make a lot! I try to cook this often and freeze the meat in two cup portions for homemade, oven-baked taquitos. Sometimes I mix the meat with brown rice and cheese and top with sour cream. But then again, I am pregnant and I have some pretty strong cravings.
