So easy to make and perfect for dinner plus leftovers! Don't worry the tequila alcohol cooks off during the cooking process and you are just left with the smoky flavor along with the sweetness from the margarita mix.

This Crock Pot Tequila Chicken Recipe is going on our menu rotation to be served frequently. It was so great at leftovers in tacos and quesadillas. We even served it on nachos later in the week. Once you have the chicken done you can use it in many different menu items which is the perfect time saver!

Heck, you could even pair it with a Freezer Strawberry Margarita for a quick and easy Mexican night at home!
