INGREDIENTS
7 oz Chicken Breast
1 Chipotle Pepper in Adobo
1/2 cup Chicken Broth
1/4 medium Yellow Onion
1 Garlic Clove
1 Tbsp Lime Juice
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tsp Ground Cumin
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Begin by prepping all your ingredients: thinly slice the yellow onion and mince the garlic. Finely chop the chipotle pepper, ensuring you incorporate some of the flavorful adobo sauce.
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and gently sauté the onion and garlic until they are soft and fragrant, about 3-4 minutes.
Place the chicken breast in your slow cooker and add the sautéed onion and garlic on top.
Sprinkle the ground cumin, salt, and pepper over the chicken. Add the chopped chipotle pepper and drizzle the lime juice over the top.
Pour the chicken broth over the entire mixture, ensuring the chicken is partially submerged.
Cover your slow cooker and cook on low for 4-6 hours or on high for 2-3 hours until the chicken is tender and easily shreds with a fork.
Once cooked, remove the chicken and shred it using two forks. Return the shredded chicken to the slow cooker and stir it well to combine with the juices and spices.
Taste and adjust seasonings if necessary before serving.
