Dinner 2 Hr. 10 Mins.

Ingredients

6

6 servings

  • 1 Reynolds® Slow Cooker Liner
  • 1.5 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs (or mix of thighs and breasts)
  • 1 teaspoon salt, divided
  • 0.5 teaspoon crushed black pepper, divided
  • 1 small onion, diced
  • 4 cloves garlic, crushed
  • 1 jalapeno, cut in half and seeded
  • 0.75 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

Instructions

  • 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.
