Notes

  • Chicken breast → Chicken thighs: Swap for boneless, skinless chicken thighs if you prefer. They’re particularly good in the slow cooker and stay lovely and juicy.

  • Peppers → Mix up the veg: Use whatever colour peppers you’ve got. You could also add sweetcorn or drained black beans if you want to bulk it out.

  • Taco seasoning → Fajita seasoning: No taco seasoning? Fajita seasoning will work too. You can also adjust the amount depending on how strongly seasoned you like it.

  • Flour wraps → Wholemeal wraps: Wholemeal tortilla wraps work just as well if that’s what you’ve got in.

  • Cheese → Whatever melts well: Cheddar, mozzarella, Monterey Jack or a Mexican-style cheese blend will all work.

**Check the sauce before adding your wraps. Slow cookers vary and some release more liquid than others. You want plenty of sauce for the wraps to soak up, but if it looks particularly watery, leave the lid off for 10–15 minutes after shredding the chicken to let it reduce slightly.

For a bit of heat, add some chilli flakes, sliced jalapeños or hot sauce.

It’s lovely as it is, but you could serve it with a simple salad, avocado, sour cream or salsa on the side.
