This has been a big hit around here lately. I don't cook it with the cilantro though, just use it as a fresh topping. My favorite toppings are guacamole and poblano-avocado yogurt dressing.

Ingredients:
2 pounds skinless, boneless, chicken breasts (fresh or frozen)
1 packet taco seasoning mix
1 (16 oz) jar salsa
⅓ cup chopped fresh cilantro
juice from 2 small limes
Directions:
1. Place chicken breasts in the bottom of your slow cooker. Sprinkle taco seasoning over the top, then cover with salsa, lime juice, and cilantro.
2. Place lid on top and cook for four hours on high, or 6-7 hours on low. Remove chicken from crockpot to a separate bowl and shred with two forks. Moisten chicken with small amounts of juice left over from the crockpot until you get the amount of moisture that you like. I used about ½ - ¾ cup juice.
3. Serve with taco shells or tortillas, adding on your favorite toppings. I like to use shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, diced avocado, cheese, sour cream, and even a drizzle of ranch dressing. Enjoy!
