Ingredients

  • 3.3 pounds chicken breast
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp nutmeg
  • 1/2 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp salt
  • pepper to tase
  • 4 limes juiced (with the skin)= 8 ounces of juice
  • 1/2 cup of maple syrup

Instructions

  • Place the chicken on the bottom of the slow cooker. (I've had this CrockPot slow cooker for years)
  • Cover in cinnamon, nutmeg, paprika, salt and pepper. Move the chicken around so that the spices spread to each piece and on each side of the chicken.
  • Pour the lime juice and maple syrup on top of the chicken.
  • Cook over low heat for about 7 hours. (I put it in at midnight and woke up at 7).
  • Shred the chicken with two forks in a bowl. Add the remaining liquid in the slow cooker to the pulled chicken.
  • Enjoy :)
