Slow Cooker Fajitas

about the recipe

We take Mexican night very seriously at our house, and these Slow Cooker Chicken Fajitas are my idea of perfection. The chicken is deliciously seasoned in a punchy marinade, topped with onion and peppers, and finished off with salsa for a simple meal you will make time and again.
