Ingredients

1 brown onion
2 red capsicums
1 green capsicum
3 chicken breasts large
3 garlic cloves crushed
400 g canned crushed tomatoes
1 lime juiced
1 stack tortillas *to serve
1 bowl guacamole *to serve

1 handful coriander *to serve

Seasoning mix

2 tsp chilli
1 tsp salt
1 tsp paprika
1 tsp brown sugar
1 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp ground cumin

Method

Step 1

Peel onion and slice lengthways. Remove core and seeds from capsicums and slice into long strips. Place half the onion and capsicums into the base of a slow cooker.
Step 2

Seasoning mix: Combine all ingredients in a small bowl. Place chicken breasts directly on top of capsicum and onion in slow cooker. Sprinkle half the seasoning mix over the chicken breasts. Turn and sprinkle remaining seasoning so that chicken is well coated.
Step 3

Distribute garlic, tinned tomatoes and remaining onion and capsicums over chicken pieces. Squeeze over lime juice. Cover and cook on low for 4 hours.
Step 4

Remove chicken from slow cooker and slice, or shred. Return to sauce and stir to combine. Serve on warmed flour tortillas with guacamole and sour cream on the side, and picked coriander leaves for garnish.
