Recipe Notes

Variations Ideas
  • Chicken – This recipe works great with skinless chicken breasts but you can also use chicken thighs.
  • Seasoning – Feel free to change the seasoning to what you prefer. We usually start with about ¼ teaspoon and add more to taste. Here are some of our favorite additions – garlic powder, thyme, rosemary or oregano.
  • Veggies – This is a great slow cooker recipe to add in vegetables to cook with the chicken and gravy. Add in peas, carrots or potatoes. Make sure to cut about the same size so they cook evenly.
Recipe Tips
  • Chicken – You can put your chicken in the slow cooker frozen or thaw.
  • Cooking time – Cooking time will vary based on your slow cooker and the size of your chicken.
  • Shredding Chicken – Once the chicken is cooked it is ready to be shredded. You can shred with two forks or learn how to shred with a mixer.
