Crockpotshreddedchickensandwiches Recipes

Steps:

• Empty can of chicken into large bowl or even crockpot container, do NOT drain.
• Open stuffing and can of cream of chicken, mix with large spoon or use clean hands to break up meat and throughly mix ingredients.
• Place in crockpot. Cook on medium for approx 2 hours or until warmed thru, stir as needed.
• Add and stir in the chicken broth as needed if mixture becomes a little dry. If preparing to bake in oven, add extra broth prior to baking in a greased casserole at 350.

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:

• 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:

• Mix chicken, soup and seasonings.
• Place in slow-cooker on low.
• Slowly add in crushed crackers as moisture appears during cooking. Usually about a sleeve from the box of Ritz will do it, sometimes more - sometimes less.
• Cook on low for 2 to 4 hours or until is set to your preference.
• Serve on buns.

Steps:

• Remove all visible fat from the chicken and toss it in the crock pot.
• Place the onion slices on top of the chicken.
• Pour the barbecue sauce over top.
• You may not need the entire jar, just enough to cover the chicken.
• Cook it on LOW for 8 hours or until the chicken is nice and tender.
• Shred the chicken with a fork and knife; scoop the mixture onto the bottom buns and top it with the top buns.
• Or, if you're like my dad, you might prefer leaving the breasts whole and eating it that way.
• Voila!
• An easy weeknight meal that doesn't heat up your kitchen in the summertime!
• I love this with potato chips and a carrot and raisin salad.

Steps:

• Cut the onion in half and slice into thin half rings. Line the bottom of the crock pot with the onions.
• Trim the chicken breasts and place on top of the bed of onions.
• Mix all of the sauce ingredients together and pour on top of the chicken covering completely. (I make the sauce the night before so that it is a simple dump and run in the morning.)
• Cook for 6 hours on low setting. The sauce thickens and turns into a dark rich brown during cooking. At the same time the onions dissolve into the sauce.
• When the chicken is falling apart tender, take two forks and shred the chicken.
• Serve on top of split buns. I like mine toasted so they hold up better to the weight of the shredded chicken.
• Suggested sides include baked beans, corn on the cob, coleslaw or cucumber salad.
