Ingredients

  • 1 lb organic chicken breast chopped into small cubes/nuggets uncooked
  • 1 small onion chopped fine
  • 1 jalapeno pepper chopped or sliced into fine ringlets
  • 2-3 garlic cloves chopped fine
  • 1 can organic fire roasted chopped tomatoes

  • ½ teaspoon chili powder
  • Salt to taste
  • 1 bay leaf crushed
  • 1 cup cilantro-chopped
  • The juice for 1-2 small limes
  • 1 cup uncooked rice I used basmati as it cooks fast, is aromatic and flavorful
  • 2.5 cups water
  • 1 avocado
  • 1 lemon
  • 1 pack of The Better Chip Jalapeno flavored tortilla chips

Instructions

  1. Add all the ingredients except the rice, avocado, lemon and tortilla chips into the slow cooker and cook on high for 2 hours.
  2. Now add the cup of rice (since basmati rice cooks fast), stir the mixture and cook on high for another hour.
