4-Ingredient Slow Cooker Salsa Verde Chicken

Ingredients:

• 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts cut in 2 or 3 pieces

• 1 jar trader joes salsa verde

• 1/2  bottle beer*

• 1.5 teaspoons cumin

• salt and black pepper

• (optional: 1 jalapeno, stem removed and diced, leaving the seeds in for extra heat if desired)

Directions:

1. Add chicken to the slow cooker. Top with salsa verde and beer, and sprinkle with cumin and season with a few generous pinches of salt and a pinch of pepper. Use a pair of tons or a spoon to turn the chicken so that both sides are coated. Cover. Cook for 3-4 hours on high heat, or 7-8 hours on low heat.

2. The chicken is ready when easily shreds with a fork. Shred the chicken in the slow cooker, and toss with the juices. Then remove the chicken with a slotted spoon and serve warm. Or, store the shredded chicken in a sealed container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days, or in the freezer for up to 3 months.

3. *If you want to make this gluten-free, you can either use gluten-free beer. Or replace the beer with chicken broth.

thank you!!!  so desperate for new, easy recipes . . . . .and when i look online . . . way too many steps for my limited attention span!    

THANK YOU! Always looking for easy crock pot meals! They are a life saver in the winter especially :)

Did you use the beer, or did you substitute it for chicken broth?

Thank you Cappy.  I made this for dinner tonight and loved every bite of it.

Sounds delicious!  I'd love to try this in my new Instant Pot....has anyone made this modification?
