Crockpot Chicken
Prep Time: A few mins
Inactive Time: 3 hours
Total Time: About 3 hours
Yield: and 6 Servings
What You'll Need:
1.5 lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts
1/2 tsp kosher salt
1/4 tsp pepper
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp onion powder
2 Tbsp olive oil
4 Tbsp butter
How to Prepare:
Season chicken breasts on both sides with all seasonings, then add in butter and drizzle of olive oil.
Cover and cook on "low" for about 3 hours (maybe a little more time depending on size of chicken breasts). Chicken should register 165 with a meat thermometer.
Shred chicken, and store in an airtight container in the refrigerator and keep up to 5 days. Use for whatever you like!
Ideas for this chicken:
Tacos, nachos or quesadillas
Chicken sandwiches--add buffalo sauce and ranch or blue cheese and pile it on a bun or tortilla for a buffalo chicken sandwich or wrap
Add bbq sauce for bbq pulled chicken sandwiches
Add in a pot of soup
Top on any salad, such as chicken caesar or strawberry fields
Chicken salad sandwiches---and so much more!
When I'm feeling relatively uninspired and have some chicken breasts sitting in my meat drawer, this is my go-to method to have some versatile meat on hand that I can use for just about anything! The seasonings add just enough flavor to the chicken and are versatile enough to put on pretty much anything! This method also yields chicken that is perfectly cooked, and good enough for any picky eater to dig into!
But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you. Matthew 5:44
