How to Make Slow Cooker Latin Chicken (Step-by-Step)

Ingredients

  • 4 chicken thighs, skinless and boneless
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 1 bell pepper, diced (choose your favorite color)
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 can (15 oz) diced tomatoes, with juice

  • 2 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika

Instructions

  1. Start by seasoning the chicken thighs with salt, pepper, cumin, smoked paprika, and chili powder. Make sure they’re nicely coated!
  2. In your slow cooker, layer in the diced onion, bell pepper, and minced garlic at the bottom. This will create a flavorful base for your chicken.
  3. Place the seasoned chicken thighs on top of the veggies, then pour the diced tomatoes with their juice over everything.
  4. Add the black beans and corn on top, gently mixing them in without disturbing the chicken too much.
  5. Cover the slow cooker and set it to cook on low for about 6-8 hours, or on high for 3-4 hours. Trust me, the longer you let it cook, the better the flavors will be!
  6. Once it’s done, shred the chicken right in the slow cooker using two forks and stir everything together to combine.
  7. Serve it up in bowls and garnish with fresh cilantro. You can enjoy it as is, over rice, or in a warm tortilla!
