Ingredients:

  • 1 ½ pounds frozen chicken breasts (about 3-4 breasts)
  • 1 cup chicken broth or stock
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • Zest and juice of 1 lemon
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

  1. Lightly grease the slow cooker insert with olive oil to prevent sticking.
  2. Place the frozen chicken breasts in the slow cooker.
  3. Pour in the chicken broth, followed by the minced garlic, oregano, thyme, lemon zest, and juice. Season with salt and pepper.
  4. Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours or high for 3-4 hours until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
  5. Once cooked, use tongs or a fork to shred the chicken directly in the slow cooker for a juicy and tender finish.
  6. Stir to combine the shredded chicken with juices in the cooker. Adjust seasoning if necessary.
