Number Of Ingredients 9

Ingredients

2 teaspoons ground ancho chile powder
1 teaspoon ground paprika
1 teaspoon dried minced onion
1 teaspoon granulated garlic
½ teaspoon ground cumin
1 ¾ pounds skinless, boneless chicken breasts
olive oil, or as needed
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 (16 ounce) jar salsa

Steps:

Mix chile powder, paprika, onion, garlic, and cumin together in a small bowl.
Pat chicken dry with paper towels. Lightly coat with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Coat all sides of chicken with seasoning mix.
Pour 1/2 of the salsa in a slow cooker and spread to cover the bottom. Place chicken on top and cover with remaining salsa.
Cook on Low for 6 to 8 hours or on High for 4 hours, until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
Shred chicken with tongs and stir thoroughly so it can absorb remaining juices in the slow cooker.

SLOW COOKER MEXICAN PULLED CHICKEN

Slow Cooker Mexican Pulled Chicken image

This super easy recipe creates an extremely tender and juicy pulled chicken. Much like you might find at a Mexican restaurant with peppers and onions. As an addition, I have created this recipe to include corn and black beans. This is great as a taco and enchilada filler, or to be served over rice. This makes quite a bit, so you can try it different ways for variety! A great Friday night recipe to last the weekend! You can serve this topped with lettuce, sour cream, and cheese.
