Not only is this chicken dish made with only 5 ingredients, but it is made in the slow cooker. Dinner doesn't get much easier than that. Looking for some other quick meal ideas? I have a whole section on my site dedicated to recipes with 5 ingredients or less. You can find it - Here.

This sounds so good would like to try this soon. Can a packaged taco seasoning be used? if so how much should I use?
jodie says
I have the same question. Did you get an answer or make a guess when you cooked it?
Stephanie says
How spicy is it? I love all things spicy, but I'm trying to appease my mom as well, who does not.
Ginger says
I make this with Rotel diced tomatoes and chiles, and I use the mild to keep it from being too spicy because my kids think everything is too spicy, haha!
Kathy Patty says
I made this last week, it was so good I made another batch today. At work, I get compliments on how good it smells, but no, I"m not sharing it with anyone. They can make their own. 😉
Ally says
By my carb count it's just under 10 carbs total per serving if you divide it into 4 servings, but that may vary with different brands of groceries 😀
Andrea Johnson says
Can't wait to try this recipe! It appears from the pic you're using boneless skinless chicken breast, I'm afraid it may dry out :-/ Have you tried with boneless, skinless thighs or bone in, skin on breast. And can you give me the nutritional info?? Haha, jk! Thanks for the wonderful recipes!! 😉
Tracey says
These is my best new find this week, thank you. I have to say it's hilarious how I see commenters not satisfied alone with the free recipes, pics, ideas, and access - complaining that the calorie counts aren't included, so 'they might not try them'. Ladies , you really should love on this stuff, because your next generation family members may not have this type of free unlimited access to anything.

Thank you!!
JAMIE says
I agree with Kayla. Nutritional information is pretty key and not having it available makes it discouraging to try. Who is going to look up every ingredient for every recipe? And probably end up getting it wrong blowing their carb count or caloric count. It would be really nice if these came with that info which is provided by other bloggers with similar recipes. Just a thought. 🙂
Peace Love and Low Carb says
Jamie, the nutritional analysis is on 90% of the recipes on this website. You say "Who is going to look up every ingredient for every recipe?" Yet that is exactly what you are asking me to do. Websites like fatsecret.com or myfitnesspal.com are great sites for figuring out your macros.
Midge says
I am so happy that you responded the way that you did. I am doing paleo and can tell looking at the recipe whether or not it will work. I believe some people are just lazy and want everything done for them.
Steph says
Any recommendations on a side dish to serve with this chicken??
Peace Love and Low Carb says
I just so happen to have an entire section of side dishes 🙂 - https://peaceloveandlowcarb.com/category/side-dishes

Made this last night... DELICIOUS and EASY! This is a great recipe that will be part of the regular rotation from now on.
Amy says
Do you carb cycle? If you do, is this a high carb or low carb day recipe? I am just starting carb cycling and am trying to figure it all out. I am looking for recipes and making my shopping list for my trip to the grocery store this morning.
Kayla says
Hi love all your recipes! But since when do you not include the nutritional values?? I May be missing something but I feel like that is very important while following the low carb life style. : )
Peace Love and Low Carb says
Hi Kayla, There are a lot of great sites for figuring out nutritional info - myfitnesspal, fatsecret etc. 🙂
Dianne says
wow! Not happy with someone doing the work of getting the recipe, but have the audacity to complain that there is no nutritional value? Amazing.
Kayno says
A lot of people will go out of their way to find something to moan about. People are ridiculous.
