Slow Cooker Shredded Chicken Nachos Recipe 395

Steps:

• Toss the chicken, bell pepper, ranch seasoning and stock in a slow cooker. Cook on high for 4 hours (or low for 6 to 8 if you need to!). Use two forks to shred the chicken then remove to a plate.
• Preheat your oven to broil.
• Spread out the chips on a large rimmed baking sheet. Top with the shredded chicken, bell pepper, both cheeses, red onion and jalapeno. Broil for a few minutes, until the cheese melts.
• Top with the cilantro and scallions, and drizzle with the salsa and ranch dressing if desired.

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.

Steps:

• In your slow cooker, mix the salsa, lime juice, taco seasoning, and cilantro.
• Salt and pepper the chicken to taste, then mix into the sauce. Cover and cook on high for four hours or low for seven to eight hours.
• Remove the chicken, shred with two forks, and return to the slow cooker and stir.
• Freeze leftovers in an airtight bag for up to six months!
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Place chicken breasts in the bottom of the slow cooker.

• Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours or high for 3-4 hours.
