Ingredients

  • 1.5 lbs of boneless skinless chicken breast
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper
  • 14.5 oz can of diced tomatoes with chilis
  • 1 onion sliced into half moons
  • 3 cups of low sodium chicken broth or enough to just cover the chicken

Instructions

  • Season the chicken breast with garlic powder, salt and pepper on both sides.
  • Layer the tomatoes, onions, and seasoned chicken breasts in the crock pot and cover with the chicken broth. You want to use enough broth to just cover the chicken.
  • Cook for 4 hours on high or 6 hours on low.
  • Once the chicken is done, remove to a cutting board and shred with a fork. (I like to store mine in a little f the liquid to keep it moist).
  • Makes 6 servings.
