Chipotle Lime Chicken Tacos
Chipotle Lime Chicken Tacos
1½ lb. boneless, skinless chicken breasts
Salt and pepper, to taste
1 lime, zested and juiced
2 chipotle chilies in adobo, finely minced (or more to taste)
1 tbsp. chili powder
1½ tsp. cumin
1 tsp. salt
½ tsp. pepper
½ tsp. paprika
½ tsp. garlic powder
¼ tsp. onion powder
¼ tsp. oregano
½ cup water
Additional ingredients:
Tortillas, warmed
Lettuce, shredded
Cheddar cheese, shredded
Tomatoes, chopped
Sour cream (optional)
Place chicken in the bottom of a slow cooker. Season with salt and pepper. In a small bowl, combine the lime zest, juice, chipotle chilies, chili powder, cumin, salt, pepper, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano and water. Mix to combine. Pour over the top of the chicken. Cover and cook over LOW heat for 6-8 hours or on HIGH for 3-4 hours, or until chicken shreds easily with a fork.
Remove the chicken from the slow cooker and shred the meat. Add some of the sauce from the slow cooker for moisture.
To serve: Top tortillas with the chicken mixture. Then add desired toppings such as lettuce, cheese, tomatoes and sour cream.
