Ingredients

The following ingredients have 8 Servings
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 2 teaspoons chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon white sugar
  • 1 teaspoon dried onion flakes ((you can substitute onion powder))
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper ((I use 1/2 teaspoon because we like a bit more spice))
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 yellow onion (, cut into 1/2 inch wedges)
  • 1 red bell pepper (, sliced)
  • 1 green bell pepper (, sliced)
  • 4 cloves garlic (, minced)
  • 1 cup salsa
  • 1 lime (, cut into wedges)
  • chopped cilantro (, as a garnish)

Instruction

  • Mix the cornstarch, chili powder, salt, paprika, white sugar, dried onion flakes, cayenne pepper and ground cumin in a small bowl.
  • Add the chicken, onions, garlic, bell peppers and salsa to your slow cooker.
  • Add the seasonings over the top of the mixture.
  • Cook on high for 3 hours or on low for 6 hours. If you cook longer it will also taste fine, but cutting may be more difficult because the chicken will break down easier.
  • Squeeze fresh lime juice over the top of your chicken (do not add before, it won't have the same flavor after cooking for so long).
  • Garnish with cilantro (optional).
