Slow Cooker Chipotle Chicken Tacos Recipe

I am kind of obsessed with anything “chipotle” flavor. That southwest chipotle sauce at Subway? I put it on every single sandwich. Our pulled pork chipotle sandwiches? They’re a regular on our meal rotation. I had some chicken and tortillas on hand, as well as a jar of chipotle sauce (this one from Herdez to be exact) – so I put it to work for me. They turned out “pretty darn tasty” in the words of my husband, so I would say this easy dinner was definitely a win.
