eat clean. live well. be awesome

It hardly gets any easier than this recipe with just 5 ingredients! Look for a salsa verde without preservatives or added sugars - we like the Trader Joe’s Salsa Verde because it’s just tomatillos, green chiles, water, onions, jalapenos, salt and spices. Serve over cauliflower riceor tucked into lettuce wraps.

Ingredients

  • 1 lb. boneless, skinless chicken thighs
  • 1 lb. boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 12-ounce jar Salsa Verde (such as Trader Joe’s)
  • 1 4-ounce can fire roasted green chiles
  • ½ tsp ground cumin
  • ½ tsp dried oregano
  • Sea salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh cilantro, lime wedges and/or diced avocado for serving, optional
  • Cauliflower rice or lettuce leaves for serving

Directions

  • Place chicken in slow cooker.
  • In a small bowl, combine salsa, green chiles, cumin and oregano. Pour over chicken.
  • Place lid on slow cooker and cook on LOW heat for 4 - 6 hours.
  • Remove lid and allow chicken to cool slightly before shredding it with 2 forks right in the slow cooker. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Transfer to serving dish, top with chopped fresh cilantro and serve with lime wedges, if desired.
  • Serve over cauliflower rice or in lettuce wraps.
