But, the hint of citrus does amazing things to brighten the flavors of this recipe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This chicken makes a great filling for burritos. Or you can serve it with some <a href=\"https:\/\/thatrecipe.com\/2018\/09\/11\/cilantro-lime-rice\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Cilantro Lime Rice<\/a> for an easy burrito bowl. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Or serve it by itself with a classic <a href=\"https:\/\/thatrecipe.com\/2017\/08\/29\/classic-caesar-salad\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Caesar Salad<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ingredients for Slow Cooker Mexican Chicken with Beans<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The ingredients are pretty basic:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>boneless chicken breasts or thighs<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>canned tomatoes with chilies, I like the fire roasted<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>black beans, or you could go with pinto beans<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>fresh garlic, jalapeno, lime and cilantro<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>liquid smoke<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>cumin, chili powder, oregano, smoked paprika, cayenne, salt and pepper<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>You'll notice there are three layers of smoke flavor: the fire roasted tomatoes, liquid smoke and smoked paprika.
