Instructions

  1. Add ingredients to a pot, stir to mix spices and tomatoes.
  2. Cover pot and cook on low on the stovetop for 2-2 1/2 hours, until chicken is cooked through.
  3. When chicken is cooked to 170 degrees internally, remove from pan with tomatoes and liquid, and place into a large bowl of a stand mixer.
  4. Add the paddle attachment and turn on medium low and spin until chicken is shredded, about 2 minutes- it helps if the chicken is still extremely hot, it makes it shred more easily.
  5. When shredded, remove from mixer and add to tacos, enchiladas, burritos, salads, or in sandwiches!
