Copy Cat Cafe Rio Recipe- Shredded Chicken
Ingredients
- 2 pounds chicken - boneless & skinless
- ½ cup zesty Italian dressing
- ½ tablespoon minced garlic (I use more like a full tablespoon)
- ½ tablespoon chili powder
- ½ tablespoon ground cumin
- 1 (1 oz) packet Ranch Dressing Mix (mix with ½ cup water)
Instructions
- Place all your ingredients except for the chicken into your crockpot. Stir.
- Add your chicken
- Cook on high for 5-6 hours or low for 7-8 hours. I flipped the chicken half way through.
- Once your chicken is done, remove just the chicken and shred using 2 forks. Replace the shredded chicken back into the crockpot and mix well with the left over juice.
- Serve in salads, burritos, tacos, burrito bowls!
