Ingredients

Servings
  • 5 lb chicken breast
  • 2 onion sliced into thin strips 1” long
  • 8 garlic cloves
  • ¼ c celery minced
  • 1 jalapeno pepper minced
  • 3 Tbsp lime juice
  • 2 tsp liquid smoke
  • 3 Tbsp taco seasoning
  • 3 Tbsp paprika
  • 2 Tbsp parsley
  • 2 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • ½ tsp cayenne pepper depending on your heat preference
  • ½ tsp cinnamon
  • ½ tsp cocoa powder
  • 3 c chicken broth (we prefer low sodium)

Instructions

  1. Place all ingredients in a 5 quart slow cooker. Cook on low heat for 5 hours (or high heat for 3 hours), until chicken is cooked through.
  2. Remove chicken breast pieces to a plate and shred the meat with two forks. Return meat to slow cooker and cook on low for 1 hour. (If the mixture is too liquidy, leave the lid off for a portion of this cooking time.)
  3. Serve with chips as nachos or loaded into a bun for a tasty slider.

Notes

  • This recipe was updated May 2017. We made the chicken even tastier! Enjoy!
