Time 3h15m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 large onion, chopped
3 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, or more to taste
1 (14.5 ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained
1 (14.5 ounce) can petite diced tomatoes
2 cups chicken broth
1 cup sour orange juice
¾ cup dry white wine
2 cloves garlic, pressed, or more to taste
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 tablespoon dried oregano
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
½ teaspoon ground thyme
1 cup water
⅔ cup medium-grain white rice

Steps:

  • Place 1/2 of the chopped onion in the bottom of a slow cooker. Place chicken breasts on top and cover with remaining onion. Add black beans and diced tomatoes.
  • Whisk together broth, orange juice, wine, garlic, cumin, oregano, salt, pepper, and thyme; pour into the slow cooker.
  • Cover and cook until chicken is falling apart and no longer pink in the center, on Low for 6 to 8 hours or High for 3 to 4 hours. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
  • Meanwhile, bring water and rice to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until rice is tender and water has been absorbed, 20 to 25 minutes.
  • Shred chicken and return meat to the pot for 5 to 10 minutes to allow it to soak up the juices. Serve over cooked rice.

CUBAN-STYLE SLOW COOKER MOJO CHICKEN



Cuban-Style Slow Cooker Mojo Chicken image

Tangy and bright citrus flavors light up the taste of this chicken, prepared in the slow cooker. Boneless, skinless chicken breasts are slow-cooked in a mixture of citrus juices and seasonings. You can shred the chicken breasts for an ingredient in other dishes, with a little liquid from the cooker, or you can serve the chicken breasts whole, as a main dish, with the yummy sauce. We like these whole, with Cuban Black Beans I, a recipe from the site, and steamed white rice.

Provided by Bibi

Time 2h55m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 14

½ cup orange juice
¼ cup lime juice
¼ cup lemon juice
2 tablespoons white vinegar
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
5 cloves garlic, peeled and chopped
1 teaspoon ground cumin
½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
½ teaspoon ground coriander
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts
2 teaspoons cornstarch
2 tablespoons water

Steps:

  • Combine fruit juices, vinegar, olive oil, garlic, cumin, pepper flakes, coriander, salt, and pepper in a blender or food processor. Pulse several times until mixture is well blended and smooth.
  • Place chicken breasts in the bottom of a slow cooker. Pour juice mixture over all, cover, and cook on High setting until no longer pink in the center and juices run clear, about 2 1/2 hours. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
  • Shred cooked chicken with two forks, adding a little liquid from the slow cooker, if desired. If serving as a main dish, remove chicken to a plate, cover, and keep warm.
  • Strain liquid into a 1-quart saucepan and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Boil until the liquid is reduced to 1 cup, about 10 minutes. Combine cornstarch and water in a small bowl and stir until there are no lumps. Add cornstarch mixture to the saucepan, stirring continuously. Allow mixture to boil about 2 minutes, stirring continuously.
  • Remove from heat when the sauce is thickened. Adjust seasonings, if necessary. Serve whole chicken breasts with sauce, if desired.
