Green Chile Chicken

Green Chile Chicken - whole 30, paleo, dairy free & gluten free. EASY for meal prep, goes well with eggs for breakfast, cauliflower rice for lunch or tacos for dinner.

Ingredients

  • 2 lbs boneless skinless chicken thighs [6-7 thighs]
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp coriander
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1 yellow onion, chopped
  • 1 jalapeno, chopped
  • 8 oz whole green hatch chiles, seeded [8 oz canned or 5-6 peppers]
  • 4 oz hot green hatch chile [4 oz canned or 2 peppers]
  • 3 tsp chicken bone broth

Instructions

  1. Rinse and pat dry the chicken thighs. Lay in the bottom of slow cooker. Add garlic powder, coriander, cumin, salt & pepper. Mix well to coat chicken in spices

  2. Add onion, jalapeno, green hatch chiles and chicken bone broth to the slow cooker. Cook for 5 hours or until chicken reaches 165 degrees. Shred with two forks

Recipe Notes

Generally there is 2-3 whole green hatch chiles per can. If using fresh, use 6-18 fresh peppers in total. If fresh are not in season & you must use canned, mix hot and mild depending on preferences. I used 2 4oz cans of whole chiles and 1 4oz hot diced chile can.
