Turn up the heat

Let’s cook.

Place half of the sliced bell peppers and onion in the bottom of a 6 quart slow cooker. Arrange the chicken breasts over the vegetables.
In a small bowl, combine the chili powder, cumin, paprika, coriander, salt, black pepper, and brown sugar. Sprinkle the seasoning evenly over the chicken.
Add the garlic and pour the tomatoes with green chiles over the chicken. Top with the remaining bell peppers and onion.
Cover and cook on low for 4 to 6 hours or on high for 2 to 3 hours, until the chicken is tender and reaches 165°F in the thickest part.
Transfer the chicken to a cutting board and let it rest for 5 minutes. Slice or shred the chicken, then return it to the slow cooker.
Stir in the lime juice and toss everything with the cooking juices. Serve in warm tortillas with your favorite toppings.

For firmer bell peppers, reserve half and add them during the final hour of cooking. Refrigerate leftovers promptly.
