2 lbs boneless chicken breasts (I used three)
1 ½ cups chopped red onion
1 ¼ cups chopped red bell pepper
¾ cup chicken broth
¼ cup chopped cilantro
1 Tbsp Cumin
2 Tbsp chopped chipotle chile in adobo (I add more)
6 cloves of garlic, roughly chopped
2 (28oz) fire roasted tomatoes
1 (4 oz) chopped green chiles, undrained
Salt and pepper

Instructions
Add everything except the cilantro in the crockpot and stir it up
Cook on low for 6-7 hours
Shred chicken

*After I shredded the chicken I added a lot more broth. I also added a bunch of zucchini, green beans and cauliflower and put in on high for an hour if fresh, 5 minutes if frozen. Add the cilantro.
