1 Gather your ingredients.
2 Rub chicken breasts with olive oil. Then, rub with salt, pepper, onion powder, and garlic powder.
3 Add chicken to slow cooker.
4 Pour chicken broth over the top and cook on high in the crockpot for 4 hours.
5 Remove breasts from the crock pot and shred with 2 forks.
6 To keep the meat moist, you can add back some of the seasoned broth from the crock pot, but I find soaking it in that much liquid after cooking results in mushy pulled chicken. Freeze any leftover broth for future recipes!
7 Serve warm in the crock pot or cold for chicken salad. This shredded chicken can be used however you prefer, and it’s great for meal prep!
