Slow Cooker Salsa Chicken. New Music From MTNS.

Slow Cooker Salsa Chicken

Q: Why did the chicken cross the basketball court?
A: He heard the referee calling fowls.

I’m not sure where this recipe originated. A few of my Facebook friends save recipes to their walls and this one kept showing up in my newsfeed. It sounded really good.

Yes. Good it is. And really easy.

Just toss chicken breasts into the cooker with vegetables, taco seasoning and salsa. Six hours later all you need to do is shred the chicken, mix in some sour cream and serve as tacos or rolled tortillas with your favorite toppings.

The sliced jalapeños you see in the photos are homemade. The recipe is unbelievably easy and yields the most amazing pickled jalapeños you could imagine. I’ll share it soon.

Brisbane based band MTNS released their debut EP, “Salvage”, last month. It’s all very good, moody electronica. The title track is the standout for me.

“Put your feet back on the ground
and just start walking”

Cheers!
