How to cook deliciously - Slow Cooker Pulled Chicken Tacos

1. Stage

Line a 4-quart to 6-quart slow cooker with a Reynolds Slow Cooker Liner.

2. Stage

Trim any large pieces of fat from chicken thighs. Season chicken with 1/2 of the salt and pepper; add to slow cooker.

3. Stage

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.

4. Stage

Cover and cook on Low for 4 to 5 hours or High for 2 to 3 hours, until chicken is done.

5. Stage

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.

6. Stage

Ladle out some juice from the slow cooker, leaving enough to mix with shredded chicken.

7. Stage

Spoon shredded chicken back into the lined slow cooker. Season to taste with additional salt, pepper, and cumin, if necessary.

8. Stage

Serve in warmed tortillas with desired toppings.
