Number Of Ingredients 10

2 lbs boneless (skinless chicken breasts)
1 (13-ounce) package Campbell's Sweet Korean BBQ Slow Cooker Sauce
1 (12-ounce) package broccoli slaw mix
1 clove garlic (minced)
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1/4 cup rice wine vinegar
1 teaspoon firmly packed brown sugar
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
tortillas (corn or flour)

Steps:

  • Place the chicken breasts into a 6-quart slow cooker and pour the sauce packet over them. Place the lid on and cook on low for about 4 hours. Once cooked through, use two forks to shred the meat in the slow cooker and mix well with the cooking liquid.
  • To make the slaw, combine the garlic, oil, vinegar, brown sugar, soy sauce, and ground ginger in a small bowl. Toss with the broccoli slaw mix in a larger bowl.
  • To assemble the tacos, place the shredded chicken on the tortillas and top with the slaw mix. You can also make a spicy sour cream sauce by combining some sour cream with a little sriracha to taste and drizzle it over the top. Garnish with a squeeze of lime and chopped cilantro.

SLOW COOKER ASIAN CHICKEN TACOS WITH BROCCOLI SLAW

A slow cooker allows the chicken to get so tender, it just shreds apart while soaking up the delicious marinade. These are a perfect combination of sweet, tangy, and spicy in a tacolicious bite! I use a microplane rasp grater for the ginger and lime. Makes 4 soft taco-sized portions or 8 fajita-sized portions! Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Prep your ingredients: Before you start cooking, make sure all of your ingredients are prepped and ready to go. This will help you save time and ensure that your tacos are cooked evenly.
  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: The quality of your ingredients will greatly impact the flavor of your tacos. Use fresh, high-quality chicken, vegetables, and spices to create the best-tasting tacos.
  • Don't overcrowd the slow cooker: When you're adding the chicken and vegetables to the slow cooker, make sure not to overcrowd it. This will prevent the chicken from cooking evenly and will make it more difficult to stir the ingredients.
  • Cook the chicken on low heat: Cooking the chicken on low heat will help it to stay moist and tender. Cook the chicken for 6-8 hours on low, or until it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Make the broccoli slaw while the chicken is cooking: The broccoli slaw is a great side dish for these tacos. It's fresh, crunchy, and flavorful. You can make the slaw ahead of time and store it in the refrigerator until you're ready to serve it.
  • Assemble the tacos and enjoy: Once the chicken is cooked, shred it and add it to the tortillas. Top the chicken with the broccoli slaw, salsa, and sour cream. Enjoy your tacos immediately!

Conclusion:

These slow cooker Asian chicken tacos with broccoli slaw are a delicious and easy meal that the whole family will love.
