Time 1h45m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 quarts water as needed
6 each skinless, boneless chicken thighs, or more to taste
2 each skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
2 tablespoons ground cumin
2 tablespoons chili powder
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon dried oregano
2 teaspoons salt
