Instructions
- Place the first six ingredients in a slow cooker and heat on low for 6 hours or high for 3 hours.
- Shred the chicken with two forks and check for seasoning. Add salt or pepper if needed.
- To warm up the tortillas before serving, carefully run them over an open flame using tongs about 3-4 times per side.
