Dump the ingredients, turn on the slow cooker. You're welcome.
Ingredients
- 2 lbs. chicken breasts (I actually prefer the thinly sliced for this â I think they shred easier)
- 1 (20 oz) can of diced pineapple (juice and pineapple separated)
- 1 jalapeno, seeded and chopped
- 1 small red onion, sliced
- 1 Tbsp chili powder
- 2 tsp cumin
- ¼ tsp garlic powder
- ¼ tsp onion powder
- ¼ tsp red pepper flakes
- ¼ tsp oregano
- ¼ tsp paprika
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp pepper
- Pinch of cayenne
- Few dashes of hot sauce
- 1/3 cup chopped cilantro
Directions
- In a small bowl, combine chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, red pepper flakes, paprika, salt, pepper and cayenne.
- Distribute seasoning evenly over chicken, ensuring that you cover both sides.
- Place chicken in crock pot.
- Cover with onions, jalapeno, cilantro and pineapple juice. Reserve pineapples for later.
- Cook on LOW for 3 â 4 hours, depending on your slow cooker. With 20 minutes left to cook, add pineapples.
- Remove chicken and shred with two forks. Using a slotted spoon, add pineapples back into shredded chicken. Add a few dashes of hot sauce to shredded chicken/pineapple mixture and toss to coat evenly.
- Depending on your tastes, you may also want to add some of the liquid back to the shredded meat.
