SLOW COOKER CILANTRO LIME CHICKEN

Chicken breasts are one of the most popular cuts of meat, but I often find them dry and bland unless they've been properly brined or marinated. Enter the magic of the slow cooker, which solves our dry chicken problem with easy and elegance. Chicken breasts are slow cooked in a slightly spicy sauce until juicy and infused with flavor. Lime juice and salt tenderize the chicken as it cooks, and the result is restaurant-quality cilantro lime chicken that will transform you into a weeknight dinner super hero!

Tips:

  • For the most tender chicken, use boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs.
  • If you like your chicken with a crispy skin, Sear the chicken breasts or thighs in a skillet over medium heat for 2-3 minutes per side before adding them to the slow cooker. (Do not skip the step of browning the chicken before slow cooking. This helps to develop flavor.)
  • Feel free to adjust the amount of seasonings to your taste. You can also add other spices, such as cumin, chili powder, or paprika, to taste.
  • Serve the coriander chicken with your favorite sides, such as rice, quinoa, or vegetables.
  • Leftover coriander chicken can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
