Steps:
- Place chicken breasts in 2.5-4 quart crockpot. Pour in chicken broth and sprinkle with seasonings.
- Cover and cook on low for 3-4 hours or high for 2-3 hours, until chicken is cooked through (165 degrees F minimum) and fall apart tender.
- Using two forks, gently pull and shred the chicken in the liquid (if your chicken has released a lot of liquid, you may want to remove some liquid before shredding, but save it in case you want to add more back in).
- Serve as desired or let cool slightly before refrigerating. Cooked chicken can be stored in the refrigerator, tightly sealed, for 3-4 days, or packaged and frozen for 3-4 months.

Steps:
- Combine chicken, water, onion, and garlic in the bottom of a slow cooker.
- Cover and cook on Low until you can press on the chicken with the back of a fork and it falls apart and is no longer pink in the center, about 5 hours. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
- Pull out each piece of chicken and shred in a large bowl with 2 forks.
- When all chicken is shredded, combine with any water remaining in the slow cooker--this keeps the shredded chicken moist.

Steps:
- Lay the chicken breasts in an even layer in a 4- to 6-quart slow cooker. Add the broth, olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, lemon peel and bay leaf if using. Season with 1 teaspoon salt and several grinds of pepper. Cook on high for 3 hours or low for 6 hours.
- Transfer the cooked chicken to a large bowl. Use 2 forks to pull it into shreds. Strain the cooking broth and drizzle about 1/2 cup over the chicken. Season with salt and pepper and toss to combine. If not using the chicken immediately, refrigerate it in an airtight container. Refrigerate the remaining cooking broth separately and use it to moisten the chicken when serving. Or add it to soups and sauces.
- Buffalo: Melt 2 tablespoons unsalted butter and whisk in 3 tablespoons Buffalo-style hot sauce. Drizzle over 2 cups shredded chicken and toss well.
- Lemon Herb: Drizzle 2 cups shredded chicken with 1/4 cup of the cooking broth and 1 tablespoon lemon juice. Sprinkle with 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley, 1 teaspoon lemon zest and 1 teaspoon dried dill. Season with salt and pepper and toss well.
- Barbecue: Warm 1/4 cup of the cooking broth in a small saucepan and whisk in 1/4 cup barbecue sauce. Pour over 2 cups shredded chicken and toss well.
CROCKPOT SHREDDED CHICKEN
This is a super easy shredded chicken recipe that makes tasty, tender chicken. Use it for tacos, casseroles, chicken salad, sandwiches, etc.! The recipe can be increased if you are looking to feed more than one person, unlike myself. I haven't tried freezing it yet, but I imagine it would freeze nicely for future meals. And, the leftover liquid and bones can be used to make a nice broth.

- Toss in halved shallots (or quartered onion), whole garlic cloves, and bay leaves.
- Cook on low for 7-10 hours.
- Remove chicken and shred with a fork.
