SLOW COOKER CILANTRO LIME CHICKEN



Slow Cooker Cilantro Lime Chicken image

Chicken breasts are one of the most popular cuts of meat, but I often find them dry and bland unless they've been properly brined or marinated. Enter the magic of the slow cooker, which solves our dry chicken problem with easy and elegance. Chicken breasts are slow cooked in a slightly spicy sauce until juicy and infused with flavor. Lime juice and salt tenderize the chicken as it cooks, and the result is restaurant-quality cilantro lime chicken that will transform you into a weeknight dinner super hero!

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 c chicken broth
1/4 c olive oil
1/4 c lime juice
4 cloves garlic (peeled and smashed)
1 jalapeno (seeded and chopped; see notes)
1-2 tsp sea or kosher salt (see notes)
2 tsp cumin
1 tsp paprika
1 tsp cracked black pepper
2 lb boneless skinless chicken breasts
1/2 c chopped cilantro

Steps:

  • Place the chicken broth, olive oil, lime juice, garlic, jalapeno, salt, cumin, paprika, and pepper into a food processor. Blend until the garlic and jalapeno are pulverized and the sauce is well incorporated.
  • Lay the chicken in a single layer in the crockpot. Pour the sauce over the chicken.
