- 1 Tbsp of turmeric
- 2 tsp sea salt

Serve with
- Butter/Romaine lettuce leaves or Gluten-free/Almond Flour tortillas
- Salsa or pico de gallo
- Shredded purple cabbage
- Shredded carrots (roasted works well too)
- Quartered avocado (♥tip: roll in chia seeds or sesame seeds so they don’t brown and you get extra fiber)

Instructions
Mix stock, garlic, chili powder, cumin, turmeric, salt and pepper in bowl.
Add chick breasts to slow cooker.
Pour mixture over the chicken and place the quartered onion on top.
Cook 2-3 hours on high or 4-5 hours on low. To ensure they’re cooked through, chicken’s internal temp should reach 165°F.
Shred the chicken (two forks make it easy). Squeeze lime over chicken just before serving.
