To me, the point of the slow cooker is to throw everything into a pot and “fahgettaboudit.”
Ryan and I think our slow cooker pulled pork is one of the best around and the recipe only requires two ingredients: pork and beef broth. Tonight we decided to replicate that recipe using chicken.
Before leaving for work, I threw two very large chicken breasts into the slow cooker and covered the meat with chicken broth. I let the breasts cook on low all day (about 8 hours).
While I prepped the veggies for tonight’s dinner, Ryan (aka my meat man) got to work shredding the chicken with two forks until it was pulled apart and lookin’ fine!
I topped my chicken with BBQ sauce and ended up enjoying it on a Arnold whole wheat sandwich thin. I looooove BBQ pulled chicken sandwiches.
Two Ingredient Crock Pot Chicken
Ingredients:
- Chicken breasts
- Chicken broth
Directions:
Remove any unwanted fat from chicken breasts and place the breasts in the slow cooker. Pour chicken broth over the breasts until covered in broth. Cook on low for 6 – 8 hours. Remove chicken breasts from crock pot and shred with a fork.
Wicked Good Dessert
For dessert I enjoyed a cup of Jello dark chocolate decadence mousse. These lil’ babies are so darn delicious.
…And I’m off to read Wicked! A woman at the gym offered to bring me the Wicked soundtrack to listen to before I see the musical. She said she’d bring it for me tomorrow and I hope to give it a listen soon. I love musicals and showtunes. They make me smile!
Goodnight!














I love crock pot beef, chicken, and pork too. So tender!

We also do a great pulled bbq pork in our house….a pork roast, 1 can cola, and 1 c. bbq sauce. Throw in crockpot on low for 6-8 hours, shred, and devour in a bun! So easy and yummy….I agree with you the crockpot is a great invention.
Ally @ Sweet & Savory

ooober fattening but when you want to add something splendid to that chicken…give it some cream cheese, cheddar cheese and hot sauce! Awesome buffalo chicken!
Megan
This looks so simple. I’ll try it. If you like a little spice, I put some pace picante salsa on chicken in the crock pot and make tacos and tostadas out of it for a few days. Tasty
Angie Reed
Made this tonight, it was perfect!! Thanks!
Marisa
Hey Julie, I was wondering could you use frozen chicken breasts for this recipe? Or do they need to be thawed first?
Bethany
i would thaw them first and then use them!
Julie @ Peanut Butter Fingers
Don’t read Wicked before you see it!!! It will ruin it!!
Caitlin
I totally agree about crock pot recipes needing to hand minimal ingredients and very little prep work…the crock pot should do all the work, not the cook
Can’t wait to try this; it looks delish & super easy!

How much broth do you use?
