Directions
1Place chicken fillets into slow cooker
2Combine all other ingredients and pour over
3Cook on high for approx 90 mins or until cooked through for the amount of chicken you use (see Notes)
4I turned mine half way during cooking
Notes
1Serve whole, sliced or shredded depending on how you wish to use it
2Great for sandwiches, salads, pizza toppers, wraps, as a main course with veg or salad or any way you can think of!
3You can easily increase the amount of chicken you use and still have enough liquid. Just ensure chicken is mostly
4covered and flip it half way to get colour on both sides.
5You could also use chicken thigh fillets which I find produce a more moist result than breast generally in slow cooking.
6Great Low Carb option.

First time trying this recipe.
It is awesome. Kept stock for soup.
Anything anyone can suggest I use left over stock for?

Cooked this and wow, how easy and yummy. Didn’t throw out the liquid left over….froze a jar for Asian stock and had the rest as a light soup. Delicious ππ

So long as it’s still covered it’ll be enough π If needed increased everything by half or double π

Hi Pauline
Iβm a huge follower of your recipes, absolutely love them.
With this one if I double or tripled it (4 or 6) breasts do I double/triple other ingredients?
Also how would I adjust time?
Thanks so much

I have made this recipe twice. Once with Chicken breast and once with chicken thighs….both turned out so moist. These could be used for many, many different recipes – including plain old salad which is how I like eating it…

Loved this recipe, did my own twist on it and marinated the chicken for 3 hours and added 2 star anise and 1 flat teaspoon of five spice. When chicken was cooked, I reduced the liquid in a frying pan while the chicken cooled down in the fridge. Sliced up the chicken and served with mixed salad leaves , crispy noodles and pickled onion, carrot and cucumber. Drizzle the reduction sauce over the chicken and omg . Thanks once again for an awesome recipe. On the rotation now for sure

I made this last week for pizza topping. It was so tender and flavoursome. I’m making chicken lasagne today, and have always poached my chicken in a frying pan. Not anymore, I’ll be using this method again today and always for poaching. Thank you!

I added onion powder to recipe because it’s a flavour I like to add to most things. Once cooked I strained the liquid and used for a ramen style dish. Family has already asked for again. So good and easy.
