Soak wheat berries in a bowl of water for at least 5 hours or overnight. Drain and place in a slow cooker with enough water to cover by one inch. Cover, and cook on Low setting for 5 to 6 hours, until tender. Add more water if needed. When tender, drain, and rinse under cold water to chill.

Chicken Adovada
Here's a "low and slow" New Mexican chicken recipe inspired by Mexican carne adovada, featuring chicken thighs simmered in a deeply flavored chili sauce. Chicken is browned on one side only, for the Maillard reaction to add its flavors to the dish, and will finish cooking and take on a deep color as it simmers. Serve with soft corn tacos, crumbled cheese, cilantro, onion and lime slices. If you prefer other toppings, go ahead and enjoy them!
