\"Weight<\/a>Anyone who has ever used a slow cooker knows just how amazing food turns out after it’s prepared. We make this Cilantro Lime Chicken ALL the time on our Patient Facilitator group outings. It’s our go-to lunch meal because it’s delicious, very healthy and packs well, so we’re able to snack on it for the entire trip! We also make it all the time at home, so we had to share it.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Not only does the chicken come out mouth wateringly tender and juicy, but the zest flavor that it packs will enliven your taste buds while keeping your conscience clean (it’s healthy, remember!). You can eat the chicken by itself because it’s\u00a0that<\/em>\u00a0good, or you can heat up little corn tortillas to make wraps or tacos, which is what we usually do.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Plus, it’s budget-friendly and only takes about 5 minutes to put together.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Here’s the recipe. We hope you enjoy!<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
