Using your slow cooker for dinners is the easiest thing you can do. You are able to provide a healthy dinner without having to slave over the stove. It’s also great for families that keep busy during weekdays. This spicy shredded chicken is for you.
I love to use my slow cooker especially during the fall and winter months. When I make slow cooker dinners it makes me feel that I’m proving a comfort meal for my family.
One time I bought a small book with slow cooker recipes and was a bit disappointed. Many of the recipes where made with multiple can foods, which was not what I was looking for. It’s fine to use can foods I have nothing against them, it just the fresher the better when possible.
This recipe for Slow Cooker Spicy Shredded Chicken is one of the best tasting and super easiest recipes to make. It can be paired with white rice, made into tacos or with anything else you wish.
