Servings 4 people
Equipment
- 1 Slow cooker 5-to-8-quarts
Ingredients
- 1½ lbs Chicken breasts boneless, skinless
- 3 tbsp Honey
- 1 tsp Onion powder
- 1 tsp Garlic powder
- ½ tsp Ground cumin
- 1 tsp Kosher salt
- 1 to 4 Chipotles in adobo finely chopped
- 2 tbsp Adobo sauce
- 1 Lime juice freshly squeezed
- Warmed tortillas for serving
Instructions
- Combine the chicken, honey, onion powder, garlic powder, cumin, salt, chipotle chiles, lime juice, and adobo sauce in slow cooker. Stir well.
- Cook for at least 3 hours and only up to 5 hours on low. If it's more convenient, you can let the slow cooker switch to warm after 5 hours. The dish will hold on warm for about another 3 hours before the chicken starts to become quite dry.
- Using two forks, coarsely shred the chicken in the sauce. Taste and add more salt or lime juice if necessary. Serve in tortillas with toppings of choice.
