- Juice of half a lime (optional, but highly recommended)
Instructions
- Place chicken breasts in a slow cooker and sprinkle with salt and pepper, then pour the salsa over the chicken breasts.

- Remove the chicken from the slow cooker and shred. Toss back into the slow cooker and mix with juices and salsa. Squeeze the juice of half a lime over the chicken.

Notes
- If you want to make this a little bit of a sweet & spicy chicken, you can stir some brown sugar in after you’ve shredded the chicken.
