Directions
Turn the crock pot on high, and add the tomato sauce and nut butter. Add the other ingredients besides the chicken. Season the chicken with salt and pepper on both sides. At this point, the liquid in the crock pot should be warm enough that you can incorporate the nut butter by stirring. Add the chicken breasts and immediately turn down to low. Cook for 6 hours. To serve, remove the chicken from the crock pot, shred with a fork, and put back into the sauce. Serve with warm corn tortillas, sour cream, and scallions.
