Ingredients

  • 2 lb boneless chicken breasts or thighs
  • 1 1/2 cups salsa
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • 8 tortillas, to serve

Steps

  1. Place the chicken in the slow cooker and season with cumin, chili powder and salt.
  2. Pour the salsa over the top.
  3. Cook on low 4 hours (or high 2 1/2) until the chicken reads 165°F and shreds easily.
  4. Shred with two forks in the juices and serve in tortillas or over rice.

Swaps

  • No chili powder? Use cumin plus a pinch of paprika and cayenne.
  • Turkey works the same way as chicken; cook both to 165°F.

Times are a guide; ovens and air fryers vary. Cook poultry to 165°F, ground meat to 160°F, and pork and fish to 145°F. Diet tags come from the ingredient list; check labels for allergens.
