Instructions
  1. Start by layering the veggies. Put the carrots first on the bottom, then add the onions and peppers.
  2. Next lay the chicken breasts overtop.
  3. Add the spices directly to the chicken as if seasoning the exposed upper surfaces. There’s no need to be exact about this. The spices will end up all throughout the dish.
  4. Slide the bay leaves down either side of the chicken.
  5. Pour the broth and then tomatoes overtop of the chicken.
  6. Cover your slow cooker and set it to low.
  7. Allow it to cook for about 10 hours. Remove the bay leaves first. The chicken is done when it easily shreds with a fork. Shred all of the chicken and then stir everything up. Enjoy!
Recipe Notes

This recipe is so incredibly simple. There’s absolutely no need to brown the chicken ahead of time especially because it will only dry the chicken out.

The final recipe will keep in the fridge for about 4 days. You can easily freeze the rest for future meals!
