We love tacos , my son loves tacos , i think he can eat tacos almost everyday , it’s his favorite food . No wonder when i was pregnant i actually ate mexican food almost everyday LOL. I remember my mother in law and i used to go out lunch every two days for mexican food , we loved the local taco shop back in Indiana , i am not sure if they still exists though . There are regular mexican tacos , there are fish tacos , so why can’t we use different seasoning for tacos ? Nobody says that you only have to use the typical taco seasoning for making chicken tacos , right ? Just like you can do your fish tacos , fried or grilled or however you wanted it . Even though this uses slow cooker , it doesn’t take long . Given your chicken is already thaw out LOL . Only about 4 hours on high in slow cooker and the chicken part is done . The rest , is just making the salsa , which doesn’t take long either . These days i am about to make dishes that doesn’t take long , and doesn’t use stove or oven , because it is too dang hot ! Since this requires Jamaican Jerk seasoning , you have two options , either you run to the store and buy the ready made seasoning, or you can always make it yourself , especially if your pantry is fully stocked with spices . I made my own seasoning , i wasn’t willing to pay over $5 for a small seasoning when i can just mix it myself at home . LOL Ingredients ( for Jamaican Jerk spice rub ) 1 tbsp garlic powder 1 tbsp onion powder 2 tsp cayenne powder 2 tsp smoked paprika 1 tsp ground allspice ( i used 1\/2 tsp cinnamon , 1\/4 tsp ginger and 1\/4 tsp cloves ) 2 tsp kosher salt 1 tsp ground black pepper 1\/2 tsp cumin 1\/2 tsp nutmeg 1\/2 tsp cinnamon 1 tsp thyme 1 tbsp brown sugar Mix all these ingredients together in a bowl , store in a jar .
