This slow cooker cilantro-lime chicken is bursting with flavor. Try it in tacos for a nice change from plain chicken.
Ingredient
1 (16 ounce) jar salsa
1 (1.25 ounce) package dry taco seasoning mix
1 medium lime, juiced
3 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
3 pounds skinless, boneless chicken thighs
Direction
Gather all ingredients.
Stir salsa, taco seasoning, lime juice, and cilantro together in a slow cooker until well combined. Add chicken and spoon salsa mixture over top to coat.
Cover and cook until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, on Low for 6 to 8 hours or High for 4 hours. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
Shred chicken in the crock with two forks, then mix with the sauce.
