Ingredients
- 1 lb. chicken breasts
- 1/2 tsp seasoning salt, such as adobo seasoning
- 1 1/4 tsp ground cumin
- 2 cups jarred salsa verde
- 3/4 cup shredded Pepper Jack cheese
- 1/2 tsp chili powder
- 1/4 tsp kosher salt
- Olive oil spray
- 18 corn tortillas
Directions
-
Season the chicken with the seasoning salt and 3/4 tsp of the cumin, then place in slow cooker. Top with 1/2 cup of the salsa verde.
-
Cover and cook on LOW 4 hours. Transfer the chicken to a large plate and discard the liquid. Using 2 forks, shred the chicken. Transfer to a medium bowl and add the Pepper Jack, chili powder, salt, and remaining 1/2 tsp cumin. Stir well.
-
Preheat the oven to 400. Line 2 large nonstick baking sheets with foil and spray with oil.
-
Working in batches, place 3 or 4 tortillas between 2 paper towels and microwave 30 seconds until they are warm and pliable. Place a tortilla on a clean, dry work surface and scoop 2 heaping tablespoons of chicken filling onto the bottom third of the tortilla. Starting at the bottom, roll the tortilla up into a tube and put in on the prepared baking sheet, seam side down. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and chicken. Spray the tops of the rolled-up tortillas with oil.
-
Bake until the tortillas start to turn golden and crispy, about 15 minutes. Serve with the remaining 1 1/2 cups salsa verde on the side.
