Cilantro Lime Shredded Chicken

Cilantro Lime Shredded Chicken

Prep time: 10 mins | Cook time: 3 hours
Yields:
6 Servings 

Ingredients

  • 2 pounds of boneless pasture-raised chicken breasts
  • 1 cup of organic chicken bone broth
  • The juice of 3 fresh limes
  • 1 tablespoon of ground cumin
  • 1 finely minced jalapeño pepper with the seeds removed
  • 1 cup of chopped fresh cilantro 

Directions

  1. Place the raw chicken breasts flat into the bottom of a heavy slow cooker or deep Dutch oven. 
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the organic chicken bone broth, fresh lime juice, ground cumin and minced jalapeño, then pour the liquid mixture completely over the chicken. 
  3. Cover the cooker tightly and set it to low heat for six hours, or simmer it on low stove settings for roughly three hours until the meat is completely tender. 
  4. Remove the chicken breasts from the cooking liquid, place them on a large cutting board and use two forks to shred the meat along its natural fiber lines. 
  5. Return the shredded chicken back into the hot broth, fold in the freshly chopped cilantro and let the meat absorb the juices for ten minutes before storage.

*Serve with rice of favorit side.

Enjoy!
