Directions

Step 1
Blend honey, garlic, and chipotle peppers in adobo sauce together in a food processor until smooth.

Step 2
Place chicken breasts in the bottom of a slow cooker and mix in honey-chipotle sauce.

Step 3
Cook in the slow cooker on Low for 5 hours.

Step 4
Transfer chicken to a bowl and shred using 2 forks. Return chicken to the slow cooker and stir in black beans.

Step 5
Continue to cook on Low until cooked through, about 30 minutes more.

Cook’s Note:

Make this dish into a burrito with your other burrito fixings. Or, if you subtract the beans, it's great on a bun.
