Description

This Slow Cooker Simple Chicken Breasts recipe brings irresistible flavor with minimal prep. Featuring tender chicken soaked in a savory broth, it’s ideal for quick dinners or healthy meals.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 tbsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tbsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 2 lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, mix together the salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika.
  2. Place the chicken breasts in the slow cooker and sprinkle the seasoning mix evenly over them.
  3. Add the butter and chicken broth to the slow cooker and cover it.
  4. Cook on low for 5-6 hours or on high for about 3 hours, ensuring the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F in the thickest part.
  5. Once cooked, turn off the slow cooker and remove the chicken. Slice or dice it as preferred and return it to the broth to soak up the juices.
  6. Serve over rice, zoodles, cauliflower rice, or your favorite pasta noodles.

Ensure the chicken reaches the safe internal temperature for the best results.
