Add the salsa verde, mild green chilies, cumin, oregano, onion powder, and garlic to your slow cooker and stir to combine. Add in the chicken breasts and toss/stir to coat. Cook on high for approx. 3 hours or low for 5-6 hours.

Shred the chicken with two forks. Give it a taste then stir in the lime juice as needed (some salsas are more tangy than others so you may not need to add much) and chopped cilantro. Season with salt & pepper as needed.

Serve in tacos or with rice and preferred toppings.
