Slow Cooker Shredded Chicken Recipes

Steps:

• Mix chile powder, paprika, onion, garlic, and cumin together in a small bowl.
• Pat chicken dry with paper towels. Lightly coat with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Coat all sides of chicken with seasoning mix.
• Pour 1/2 of the salsa in a slow cooker and spread to cover the bottom. Place chicken on top and cover with remaining salsa.
• Cook on Low for 6 to 8 hours or on High for 4 hours, until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
• Shred chicken with tongs and stir thoroughly so it can absorb remaining juices in the slow cooker.

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:

• Add all ingredients to a slow cooker and stir until chicken and onions are coated with seasonings.
• Cook on high for 3-4 hours, or until chicken is cooked and shreddable.
• With a set of tongs or two forks, shred the chicken and stir into the juices.
• Distribute evenly between slider buns.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Combine yogurt, tomato paste, onion, garlic, curry powder, ginger, salt, and pepper in the slow cooker. Add chicken breasts and mix with yogurt sauce.
• Cook on Low until chicken is tender and cooked through, about 8 hours. Shred with 2 forks.

Steps:

• Mix chicken, onions, garlic, bay leaves, broth, salt, and pepper in a slow cooker. Cover and cook until chicken shreds easily when pierced with a fork, about 4 hours on high or 6 hours on low.
• Remove chicken from liquid and shred with a fork; taste and season with salt and pepper, if needed. Strain stock through a fine-mesh sieve into a medium bowl; discard vegetables. Store chicken and broth together or separately.
• Do Ahead
• Chicken can be made 3 days ahead; cover and chill either in broth or separately, or freeze either together or separately up to 6 months.

Steps:

• Mix chicken broth, tomato paste, garlic, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, garlic salt, vinegar, cumin, paprika, and cayenne pepper together for sauce in a small bowl.
• Place chicken in a 3-quart slow cooker. Pour sauce over top.
• Cover and cook until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, on Low for 5 hours or on High for 4 to 5 hours. Remove chicken and turn the slow cooker to Warm.
• Shred the chicken with 2 forks and return to the slow cooker. Heat for 10 minutes to allow juices to soak into the shredded chicken.
