Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breast
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1 tsp seasoned salt
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder

Equipment

  • Slow Cooker

Method
 

  1. Season the chicken breasts with seasoned salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Pour chicken broth into the slow cooker and add the chicken breasts. Cover and cook on LOW for 6 to 8 hours until the chicken easily falls apart with two forks. Toss the shredded chicken in the juices from the slow cooker. Use right away or let cool completely and store in a zip-close bag in the fridge for up to 5 days or in the freezer for up to 2 months.

Notes

  • Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for 3 to 5 days.
  • Freezing: Freeze shredded chicken in portions for quick meals later.
  • Variations: Customize with your favorite spices or sauces for a unique twist.
  • Cooking Tips: Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before shredding for easier handling.
  • Flavor Boost: Add fresh herbs or citrus zest before serving for extra flavor!
