An experiment!

I just mixed up a salsa with tomato, scallions, onion, fresh corriander, green peppers, all seasoned with cumin, black pepper, salt, oregano, and garlic, with a splash of lime juice and another of white wine.

I put this into the Slow Cooker with four chicken breasts, each cut into thirds. About an hour before I remove it, I'll add in some cayenne pepper and some dried chili pods. I think they get a bit bitter if cooked too long.

Hopefully, dinner will be shredded chicken in salsa covered with a Taco sauce... I hope we make out better than the Guppies...

ADDENDUM: Be careful about the cooking time. This dish came out great but the salsa was almost cooked away to a soup. I had it set for 10 hours on Low, but I think 8 hours would have been better. It was delicious anyway!
