Ingredients
  • 4 Chicken Breasts
  • 1 pkg White Tortillas charred
  • 1 Whole Pineapple cubed
  • 1 medium Yellow Onion thinly sliced
  • 1 bunch Fresh Cilantro
  • 1/2 cup Beeyond The Hive Raw Wildflower Honey
  • 1 7 oz can Chipotle Peppers in Adobo Sauce 3 peppers diced
  • 2-3 tsps Adobo Sauce
  • 1 tsp McCormick Ground Cumin
  • 1 tsp McCormick Chili Powder
  • 1 tsp McCormick Paprika
  • 1/2 tsp McCormick Garlic Salt
  • 1/4 tsp McCormick Freshly Ground Black Pepper
  • Fresh Lime Wedges
Instructions
  1. In a small dish, add all the spices and mix until thoroughly combined.
  2. To a slow cooker, arrange the whole chicken breasts and completely coat both sides of the chicken with the spice mixture. Top with the diced chipotle peppers, sauce and honey.
  3. Cover and cook on high for 3 - 3 1/2 hours, or cook on low for 6 - 6 1/2 hours.
  4. Pull out the chicken and shred with two forks. Then add the meat back to the slow cooker and stir into the juices. (There will be quite a bit of liquid, but once the chicken is shredded and added back in it will be nicely absorbed).
  5. Lightly char the tortillas on medium-low flame of a gas stove, or broil on high in the oven. (*Either way, don't leave them unattended).
  6. Top with onion, pineapple, cilantro and lime wedges.
Recipe Notes

*Slow Cooker Times: Whether you cook the meat on low or high, make sure to check the doneness at the 3 hour or 5-6 hour mark. If it is overcooked, it will taste dry and loose its flavor
