Drunken Chicken Crock Pot Tacos


Happy Cinco de Mayo! To celebrate the day the Spanish defeated the French in the Battle of Puebla and my birthday, I made an awesome new recipe for you: Drunken Chicken Crock-Pot Tacos. I figure, after a long arduous battle or a big night of drinking on your celebratory night, these tacos would be the perfect comfort meal!

What makes these tacos even better is that they are made in the crock pot! The chicken slow cooks and becomes crazy tender and juicy. You may be asking why these chicken tacos are “drunken,” and that’s because they are made with the perfect Cinco de Mayo companion: beer. Then add some fresh lime juice. Of course I made made a recipe where you can drink and cook with the beer!

I used Pacifico beer for the particular recipe, mainly because it was my beer of choice when I lived in Cabo San Lucas for the summer. You see, you get to drink a quarter of the beer, and then you add it to the slow cooker to harmonize with the meat. Win-win!


With tacos, it’s all about the toppings. I went a little crazy with these crock pot chicken taco toppings, but trust me, it was worth it. Pickled red onions, avocado, a homemade spicy-yoghurt lime sauce, cilantro, cotija cheese and some chili lime salt.

I hope you have a fun Cinco de Mayo and make these tacos in advance, so you’ll have some tasty treats awaiting your arrival from a night on the town. They’d be great to serve at a party, too!
