Cover and cook for 4 hours on high or 6 hours on low. 30 minutes before it’s ready, transfer the chicken to a plate and shred with a fork. Remove the cooked veggies from the broth with a slotted spoon and transfer to a large blender. Add cilantro to blender and blend contents until completely smooth.
