Green Chili Chicken AKA "Scary Tacos"

This is a recipe that I seem to be making every couple weeks. Allison C's husband, Drew, dubbed them "Scary Tacos" after making them for their family on Halloween. Somehow the name kind of stuck. :)

* 2 or 3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (or 6-8 chicken tenders)
* 1 small can of green salsa
* 1 small can of diced green chilies
* 1 tablespoon of cumin
* 1 teaspoon of crushed oregano
* 1/2 teaspoon of chili powder

Mix salsa, chilies, cumin, oregano and chili powder in your crockpot. Place chicken in the crockpot. Give it all a little stir. Cook covered on High for 4-5 hours, or on Low for 6-8. You'll know it's ready when the chicken easily shreds with a fork. Shred chicken and stir with liquid mixture about an hour before serving.

Serve with flour tortillas, with sour cream, cheese, olives, onions, tomatoes.

Serves 4.
