Equipment
- 1 Slow cooker
Ingredients
- 5 skinless, boneless chicken breasts
- 1/4 cup chicken broth
Instructions
- Arrange the boneless, skinless chicken breasts in the slow cooker. Pour ¼ cup of chicken broth over the chicken.
- Cover and cook on High for 2–3 hours or Low for 4–5 hours. The chicken is done when it reaches 165°F in the thickest portion. Cooking times can vary depending on the size of the chicken breasts and your slow cooker, so begin checking at the earliest suggested time.
- Transfer the chicken to a cutting board or shallow bowl. Let it rest for several minutes, then shred it using two forks. Stir in a little of the cooking liquid to keep the chicken moist.
- Use caution when removing and shredding the chicken because the slow cooker, chicken and cooking liquid will be hot.
