This recipe will be on the permanent rotation  I am all about making life easy so I love my slow cooker and use it often. These fajitas I have perfected over the years .

This is the most time consuming part of this recipe . Clean and slice the bell peppers and onions and strips and place them in the bottom of the slow cooker.

Now Pour the can of Rotel tomatoes over the veggie mixture.

In a small bowl whisk together  the fajita seasoning packet , water, oil and fresh lime juice.

Pour the seasoning Mixture over the chicken breast. Place the lid on the slow cooker and cook on low 4-6 hours or on High 3-4 hours. Cooking times will depend on the thickness of the chicken breast.

Once the chicken is cooked carefully remove it from the slow cooker to a cutting board .  Either slice it with a sharp knife or shred it . Then place the meat back into the slow cooker to keep it warm until it is ready to be served.

Notes

If you want your chicken to cut more into strips and not shred I find that a thin cut or a pounded flat chicken breast works best and cook at the lower end of the times

Use your favorite combination of bell pepper . I find the green bell pepper is strong but it is nice mixed with other bell peppers
