Steps:
- Line a 4-6 quart slow cooker with a Reynolds® Slow Cooker Liner.
- Trim any large pieces of fat from chicken thighs. Season chicken with half the salt and pepper; add to slow cooker.
- Add onion, garlic, jalapeno, orange juice, lime juice, soy sauce, cumin, and the remaining salt and pepper to slow cooker. Stir gently with a wooden or silicon spoon to combine.
- Cover and cook on high setting for 2 to 3 hours or low-heat setting for 4 to5 hours, until chicken is done.
- Carefully remove lid to allow steam to escape. Use slotted spoon to transfer chicken to a large bowl or cutting board. Shred into bite-size chunks. The chicken should easily shred when it is cooked through.
- Ladle out some of the juices from the slow cooker, leaving enough to mix with shredded chicken.
- Spoon shredded chicken back into lined slow cooker. Season to taste with additional salt, pepper, and cumin, if necessary.
- Warm tortillas in oven or on stove top.
- To serve, top each tortilla with shredded chicken, diced red onion, chopped cilantro, and a squeeze of fresh lime juice.
