Begin by seasoning the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and chipotle powder in a small bowl. Place the seasoned chicken in the slow cooker.

Pour in the chicken broth and add the bay leaves for added flavor. Cover the slow cooker and set it to cook on low for 6 hours or high for 3 hours.

Once the cooking time is complete, remove the chicken and shred it using two forks. Return the shredded chicken to the slow cooker and stir to combine with the juices.

For the avocado-corn salsa, combine diced avocado, corn, chopped cilantro, lime juice, and a pinch of salt in a bowl.

6

Serve the chipotle-lime chicken topped with the fresh avocado-corn salsa, and enjoy!
