Garlic Lime Chicken

5-6 large boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 T paprika
1 T cumin (or for a twist, use chili powder)
1 T oregano (or 1 drop dōTERRA oregano essential oil)
3 cloves garlic
Juice of 1 lime
3-5 drops dōTERRA lime essential oil
1/3-1/2 c water

2 c cooked rice (1 c dry yields 2 c cooked)
1 lb chopped broccoli

Directions:

Mix paprika, cumin (or chili powder), & oregano if using it together & rub on all sides of each piece of chicken. If using oregano oil, wait to add that.

Place chicken, garlic cloves, lime juice, essential oils & water in crockpot & cook on low for about 6 hours, or until chicken pretty much falls apart with the touch of a fork.

When chicken is almost done, put broccoli on a baking sheet, and bake at 375° for about 30 minutes. You can broil them for a few minutes if you want them brown & crispy.

In each bowl, serve a layer of rice, then a layer of broccoli, topped with a layer of pulled chicken. Pour some of the juices from the pot over the top of each serving.
