To make the shredded chicken the home cook cuts his chicken breasts into three pieces before putting them on the bottom of his slow cooker.
He then adds the rest of the ingredients on top, stirring them together gently so the chicken on the bottom of the pot isn’t disturbed.
After six hours he shreds the chicken with his fork before serving.
A picture of the Mexican feast shows the slow-cooked chicken served next to soft tacos, taco boats, salad and salsa.
But he said it can be ‘served with anything’.
And his fans were impressed by the spicy spread with many promising to ‘try the recipe out’ themselves.
‘This looks so good for the crew when we have a full house,’ one person said.
Others were impressed by the cook’s use of a segmented Tupperware container for the salad.
Inside the server the cook had sliced cherry tomatoes, cheese, baby spinach, cucumber and carrot around a tub of salsa.
