INGREDIENTS
Main Ingredients
- 🍗 1 large skinless, boneless chicken breast
- 1 (16 ounce) jar salsa verde
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 🧅 1 medium yellow onion, chopped
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 🧂 salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 8 (6-inch) soft corn tortillas, cut into triangles
Toppings & Garnishes
- ½ cup sour cream
- 🥛 1 tablespoon milk
- 2 tablespoons crumbled cotija cheese
- ¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro
STEPS
Combine chicken breast, 1/2 of the salsa verde, chicken broth, onion, chili powder, cumin, cayenne, salt, and pepper in a slow cooker. Cook until chicken is cooked through on Low for 6 hours or High for 3 hours.
Remove chicken from sauce and shred in a bowl with 2 forks. Return to the slow cooker and mix to combine with sauce.
Place a large skillet over medium heat; add olive oil and heat until it starts to shimmer. Add tortilla triangles to the hot oil and cook, flipping every minute, until golden, about 8 to 10 minutes.
Add shredded chicken, slow cooker sauce, and remaining salsa verde to tortillas. Mix and heat until everything is warmed through.
Meanwhile, stir sour cream and enough milk together so it can be drizzled.
Remove tortilla mixture from the heat. Sprinkle cotija cheese on top and garnish with cilantro; drizzle with thinned sour cream mixture.
