SALSA VERDE CHICKEN | SLOWCOOKER SALSA VERDE CHICKEN

Salsa Verde chicken is tender chicken that just fall apart and cooked in a zesty, tangy sauce!! You can serve as a taco filling or over a bowl of mexican rice. It’s super simple, made with only a handful of ingredients! It’s also cooked in a slow cooker so you can just set it and forget it!
Salsa Verde Chicken
Ingredients
2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breast or thighs
1 1/2 cups of salsa Verde
Juice of 2 limes
1 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon garlic powder
2 tablespoons corn starch
Directions
Place chicken into a slow cooker and season with salt and pepper.
Add cumin, garlic powder, salsa verde and lime juice. Cook on high setting for 4 hours or low setting for 6 hours.
20 minutes before it’s done cooking, combine cornstarch with a little water to make a slurry. Stir into sauce, cover and cook for 20 minutes.
When it’s done cooking shred the chicken with 2 forks and season with more salt if needed.
I like to serve it up as tacos with tortillas, diced onions, cilantro and sour cream!

I cooked my meat first added lots of garlic and peppers 🫑 of different colors and we boiled our chicken until tender. Poured over cauliflower rice with a nice green salad 🥗yummy😊but the verde is a delicious idea !!!

Would it work if we substituted the chicken, with vegan protein?

[@JoannePimentel]

Hi! I’m not sure, I’ve never tried or had vegan protein. Wish I could be of more help!

[@isabelaherrera3995]

Hi! Can I use this in a stove?

[@JoannePimentel]

Hi Isabel! Sorry I haven’t tried cooking it over the stove. Stove top should be a lot faster, I’m guessing 20 minutes over low heat or until the chicken is cooked through. Hope that helps!
