Chef's Notes
Do not skip the sautéing step! Building that base flavor in the skillet is the secret shortcut to making your slow-cooker soup taste like it simmered all day in a traditional kitchen.
Pro Tip
If you are in a rush, you can crank the slow cooker to HIGH for 3 to 4 hours, but low and slow always wins the crown for tenderness.
Kitchen Catastrophe Warning
Do not commit the cardinal sin of dumping raw, unsautéed onions and garlic straight into the slow cooker without that initial skillet sweat; you will end up with a watery, sad broth that tastes like raw garden soil instead of a majestic Mexican fiesta.
The Jester's Corner
Royal Court Comedy
I suppose if you aren't patient enough to wait 8 hours, you could stare at the slow cooker intensely, though I suspect the chicken will find your gaze more annoying than appetizing.
The Culinary Science
Submerging the chicken fully in acidic tomato-based broth protects the proteins from drying out, while the slow heat gently breaks down tough collagen into succulent moisture.

Meat Moisture Retention Protocol
Storage Science
Store in an airtight container in the coldest part of the refrigerator along with any cooking juices or sauces to maintain moisture. Consume within 3-4 days.
Reheating Science
Reheat gently in the oven at 300°F (150°C) or on the stovetop over low heat. Add a splash of broth or water and cover tightly to steam. This prevents the proteins from constricting and squeezing out their juices.
