For extra flavor, consider marinating the chicken in the salsa mixture for at least 30 minutes before adding it to the slow cooker. Adjust the amount of cayenne pepper to your preferred level of spiciness. You can also add a pinch of chili powder for extra depth of flavor. If you don't have a slow cooker liner, you can skip it, but be prepared for a bit more cleanup. Feel free to customize the toppings to your liking. Other great options include shredded lettuce, pico de gallo, and your favorite hot sauce. Leftover chicken fajita filling can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheated for another meal.
