SLOW COOKER SHREDDED CHICKEN
I was skeptical this would be good when I was making it but we all LOVED it! So easy and yummy. I had the bone-in chicken breast (was a really good buy). Cooked in crock pot then took out and shredded and put back in juice and cooked for about another two hours.
4-6# boneless, skinless chicken thighs (frozen or fresh) - see my note above
1 T chili powder
1 1/2 tsp cumin
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp onion powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
1/4 tsp oregano
1 (4 oz) can green chilies
1 can Rotel diced tomatoes with green chilies (undrained)
2 T lime juice (optional)
Place chicken in bottom of slow cooker. Place remaining ingredients in slow cooker. Cover and cook for 6-8 hours or high 3-4 hours. Once cooked shred chicken with two forks. Serve over tortilla chips and top with favorite toppings. (see note above this chicken could be used for lots of different things)
Possible toppings:
shredded cheddar cheese
sliced jalapeno
olives
fresh chopped tomatoes
corn
black beans
salsa
sour cream
chopped spinach
refried breans
