Crockpot Chicken Fajitas

Print Recipe

A simple and flavorful slow cooker chicken fajitas recipe featuring seasoned chicken breasts cooked with bell peppers, onions, and a mix of spices for an easy dinner.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 ½ pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 2 ½ teaspoons garlic powder
  • 2 teaspoons chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • ¾ teaspoon ground cumin
  • ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon smoked paprika
  • ¼ teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 (10-ounce) can fire-roasted diced tomatoes with green chilies
  • 3 bell peppers, sliced (any color)
  • 1 medium yellow onion, sliced
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice (about ½ lime)
  • For serving: corn or flour tortillas, sour cream, guacamole, salsa, shredded cheese

Instructions

  1. Season the chicken on both sides with garlic powder, chili powder, salt, onion powder, cumin, black pepper, smoked paprika, and oregano.
  2. Place the seasoned chicken in a large slow cooker.
  3. Pour the fire-roasted diced tomatoes with green chilies over the chicken and lightly toss to combine.
  4. Cover and cook on low for 5 hours or on high for 3 hours.
  5. Add sliced bell peppers and onions on top of the chicken about 30-45 minutes before the end of cooking and continue to cook until vegetables are tender.
  6. Once done, stir in lime juice and serve with tortillas and desired toppings.

Notes

Use chicken thighs instead of breasts for juicier meat. Add bell peppers later in cooking for crisper texture. Leftover fajita filling can be refrigerated and used for wraps or salads.
