Ingredients
-
1 Reynolds® Slow Cooker Liner
-
1 ½ pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs (or mix of thighs and breasts)
-
1 teaspoon salt, divided
-
½ teaspoon crushed black pepper, divided
-
1 small onion, diced
-
4 cloves garlic, crushed
-
1 jalapeno, cut in half and seeded
-
¾ cup orange juice
-
2 medium limes, juiced
-
1 tablespoon soy sauce
-
2 teaspoons ground cumin
-
1 small bunch cilantro, stems cut off and leaves coarsely chopped
-
12 (6 inch) corn tortillas, warmed
Directions
-
Line a 4-quart to 6-quart slow cooker with a Reynolds Slow Cooker Liner.
-
Trim any large pieces of fat from chicken thighs. Season chicken with 1/2 of the salt and pepper; add to slow cooker.
-
Add onion, garlic, jalapeño, orange juice, lime juice, soy sauce, cumin, and remaining salt and pepper to the slow cooker. Stir gently with a wooden or silicone spoon to combine.
-
Cover and cook on Low for 4 to 5 hours or High for 2 to 3 hours, until chicken is done.
-
Carefully remove the lid to allow steam to escape. Use a slotted spoon to transfer chicken to a large bowl or cutting board. Shred into bite-sized chunks. Chicken should easily shred when it is cooked through.
-
Ladle out some juice from the slow cooker, leaving enough to mix with shredded chicken.
-
Spoon shredded chicken back into the lined slow cooker. Season to taste with additional salt, pepper, and cumin, if necessary.
-
Serve in warmed tortillas with desired toppings.
Tips
For a low-carb variation, use lettuce leaves instead of corn tortillas.
