Slow Cooker Cilantro Lime Chicken

I think this will be a go to meal for when the kids are here.  Served on tortillas with lettuce, tomatoes, olives and sour cream, it will be yummy, I am sure.

1 16oz. jar salsa
1 package dry taco seasoning mix
1 lime, juiced
3 tbsp. chopped fresh cilantro
3lbs. boneless skinless chicken breasts


Place the salsa, taco seasoning, lime juice and cilantro into a slow cooker and stir to combine.  Add the chicken breasts, and stir to coat with the salsa mixture.  Cover the cooker, set to high and cook until the chicken is very tender, about 4 hours or on low for 6 to 8 hours.  Shred chicken with 2 forks to serve.
