Ingredients
  • 1.5 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs
  • 1 whole red bell pepper seeded and thinly sliced
  • 1 whole onion thinly sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 jar salsa verde 16 ounces
  • 1/3 cup chicken stock
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1 pinch black pepper
  • 1 pinch cumin
  • 3 cups cooked rice
  • fresh cilantro as needed for garnish
Instructions

  1. Set up a slow cooker and combine the chicken, bell pepper, onion, garlic, salsa verde, chicken stock, salt, pepper and cumin in it. Give it a quick stir, then close it up and turn it to low. Let it cook for 5 hours, then open it up and use two forks to give it a stir and shred the chicken up. Let it cook for another 3 hours. Serve over the warmed up cooked rice with some fresh cilantro immediately and enjoy! It also makes great leftovers.
