Steps:
- Place your chicken breasts in the bottom of your pressure cooker or your slower cooker.
- Pour the jar of salsa overtop of the chicken breasts.
- Follow your pressure cooker instructions for fresh "chicken" as pressure cookers do vary (usually between 10-20 minutes of cooking). (I haven't had to place any extra liquid in my pressure cooker for this recipe!) Once your pressure cooker is done cooking, gently pull apart the chicken breasts with a fork and stir to recombine the chicken with the delicious salsa liquids. Squeeze a generous amount of fresh lime juice over the chicken and sprinkle with fresh lime zest.
- Cover your slow cooker and cook on low for 7-8 hours or on high for about 4 hours. Gently pull apart the chicken breasts with a fork if the chicken hasn't fallen apart on it's own already and stir to recombine the chicken with the delicious salsa liquids. Squeeze a generous amount of fresh lime juice over the chicken and sprinkle with fresh lime zest.

LIME CHICKEN WITH BLACKBERRY SALSA
I invented this recipe in a hurry one night and was over-the-top thrilled with how it came out! I've since served it to company; it always gets rave reviews. I love that it's so easy, and so healthy for my family, too. You can use grilled chicken instead of baked, if you like, and the spice level is up to you! If you like more kick in your food, use the whole 2T of red pepper flakes. Otherwise, start with 1T and adjust to taste. -Joni Hilton, Rocklin, California
