    HOW TO EASILY SHRED CHICKEN

    After the cook time has ended, shred the chicken with two forks or use these shredding claws. These are so much easier on the hands and make the shredding job a lot quicker.

    When you shred the chicken, it will absorb any leftover liquid.

      I made my own dry ranch dressing seasoning- less sodium, sugar… whatever. Parsley, seasoning salt, garlic & onion powder, thyme, and I added dill. So delish I served it over broccolini not cauliflower or broccoli rice actually broccoli florets! Yummy! Thx for sharing it was delish!!

      About how much per serving? 1 cup?

      Based on measurements it looks like serving size may be 2 cups of chicken. However I only divided 3lbs of chicken by 8 servings which seems to be the only thing listed for serving info.

      Completely with you on this. If it was called Opoid Chicken people would lose their freaking minds.

      If you want a chicken mush that only tastes like salt, go for it. Will never waste the money making this again.

      Ive had family members with drug addiction and not once do I associate “crack” with a good recipe and get offended. Seriously?? That’s right along there with hair “braid appropriation”, not trying to be rude but if this sensitivity is what the future generations are gonna be accustomed to then we are all in trouble.

      You know what? I’ve been reading all comments/questions regarding this recipe and YOUR RESPONSE deserves the KUDOS! 🥳
      This is the most thoroughly researched answer for everyone’s questions regarding what is in this recipe and what it’ll break down to once it’s put into their mouth! Now EVERYONE needs to just cook the recipe and enjoy or move along! Thank you, Kevin.
      And we don’t even know each other 🤣

      And I didn't cook bacon. I bought a small bag of bacon pieces, NOT BITS! It was the perfect amount! Not too salty and you could still taste it!

      I absolutely LOVE this recipe!!! My friend and I thought it would cook slow by multicooker standards. Boy were we wrong! It was cooked in no time flat! We let it cook completely down and then followed the directions. It was a little too thick to stir. Still good though! Made it again last night, but doubled it and left some of the broth mix. Then added other ingredients. Made stirring a WHOLE lot more simple! It was creamy and amazingly good! My daughter made a wrap out of it while my son, husband and I ate it plain on a plate. So good!!! I've been eating it today with whole wheat Ritz. My family and I love it!! Thank you for this AMAZING recipe!!!

      How do you serve this? Is it a sandwich? Or did you put it over rice or noodles?

      This was extremely salty... I'd make it again but with half the amount of bacon, add bell peppers and maybe mushrooms.

      Too salty for me and too mushy. Other than that it was good and easy to make.

      Did anyone ever figure out how much per serving?
