 Crockpot Shredded Chicken


Crockpot shredded chicken is an incredibly versatile dish that can be used in a variety of recipes, from tacos and sandwiches to salads and soups. Here's a simple and delicious recipe to make crockpot shredded chicken:


Ingredients:

  • 2-3 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs
  • 1 cup chicken broth or water
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions:

  1. Prep the Crockpot:

    • Lightly grease the bottom of your crockpot with cooking spray or oil.

  2. Season the Chicken:

    • In a small bowl, mix together the garlic powder, onion powder, dried thyme, dried oregano, paprika, salt, and pepper.

  3. Season the Chicken:

    • Season both sides of the chicken breasts or thighs with the spice mixture.

  4. Layer in the Crockpot:

    • Place the seasoned chicken in the bottom of the crockpot in a single layer.

  5. Add Liquid:

    • Pour the chicken broth or water over the chicken in the crockpot.

  6. Cook:

    • Cover and cook on low heat for 6-8 hours or on high heat for 3-4 hours, or until the chicken is tender and easily shreds with a fork.

  7. Shred the Chicken:

    • Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the crockpot and place it on a cutting board.
    • Use two forks to shred the chicken into bite-sized pieces.

  8. Optional: Reduce the Liquid (Optional):

    • If there is excess liquid in the crockpot, you can strain it and return the shredded chicken to the crockpot. Cook on high heat, uncovered, for 30 minutes to 1 hour, or until the liquid has reduced to your desired consistency.

  9. Serve or Store:

    • Use the shredded chicken immediately in your favorite recipes, or let it cool completely before storing it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. You can also freeze it for up to 3 months.

Tips:

  • Variations: Feel free to customize the seasoning to your liking by adding other spices or herbs such as chili powder, cumin, or rosemary.
  • Liquid: You can use chicken broth, water, or even salsa for added flavor.
  • Cooking Time: Cooking times may vary depending on the size and thickness of your chicken pieces, so adjust accordingly.
