SLOW COOKER MEXICAN SHREDDED CHICKEN

This slow cooker recipe is great for those busy weekdays. We like this shredded chicken in tacos but it could be used in a lot of different dishes. Kid-tested and approved! Freeze the leftovers for a quick meal later! Serve in tacos, taquitos, enchiladas, salad, chicken soup, or shredded chicken sandwiches!

Steps:

  • Mix chile powder, paprika, onion, garlic, and cumin together in a small bowl.
  • Pat chicken dry with paper towels. Lightly coat with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Coat all sides of chicken with seasoning mix.
  • Pour 1/2 of the salsa in a slow cooker and spread to cover the bottom. Place chicken on top and cover with remaining salsa.
  • Cook on Low for 6 to 8 hours or on High for 4 hours, until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

  • Place chicken breasts in the bottom of your slow cooker. Top with all of the remaining ingredients. Cover and cook on low for 4-6 hours. I don't recommend cooking this on high or for longer than 6 hours as the chicken can overcook and become dry or mushy.
  • You may remove the chicken from the crock pot or leave it in and shred it in there. Use as much or as little juice as you desire. I like to use all of the juice and cook the shredded chicken in the juice for about 15-20 minutes so it can soak up more flavor. If there is a lot of liquid drain some off.
