Steps
1
Season the chicken breasts with cumin, paprika, salt and pepper; then place them in the crockpot along with the key lime juice, olive oil and minced garlic.
2
Cover and cook on low heat for 3-4 hours, until the chicken is cooked through and tender enough to shred.
3
Once the chicken is ready, shred it using tow forks, letting it soak up the remaining lime juice in the crockpot for added flavor.
4
Warm the corn tortillas, then fill them with the shredded chicken. top with sliced avocado, slaw mix and chopped cilantro.
5
Serve immediately, with lime wedges on the side for an extra burse of citrus flavor.
