Ingredients
  

  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup chicken broth or salsa
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Your favorite herbs and spices optional

Instructions
 

  • Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels.
  • Layer the chicken breasts in the slow cooker in one even layer.
  • Pour the chicken broth or salsa over the chicken for moisture.
  • Season the chicken with salt, pepper, and any other desired herbs and spices.
  • Cover and cook on high for 2.5 to 3 hours or on low for 4 to 5 hours.
  • Check that the internal temperature reaches 165°F in the thickest part of the chicken.
  • Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before slicing to retain juiciness.

Notes

Adding liquid is key to moist chicken. Don’t overcook to avoid stringiness.
