Weights are estimates. Together, the ingredients weigh about 2.52 kg before cooking, which is about 250 g per serving.

Steps

  1. Trim any excess fat from the chicken breasts and arrange them in an even layer in a slow cooker. Season both sides with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder; these seasonings are inferred because the source does not list them.

  2. Pour the chicken broth or water around the chicken, taking care not to wash the seasonings off the meat.

  3. Cover the slow cooker and cook on LOW for about 5–6 hours, or on HIGH for about 3–4 hours, until the thickest pieces reach at least 165°F (74 °C) (74°C (165 °F)) and the chicken is tender enough to pull apart easily.

  4. Transfer the cooked chicken to a large bowl, reserving some of the cooking liquid in the slow cooker.

  5. Shred the chicken with two forks or clean hands. Add enough reserved cooking liquid to keep the meat moist, then toss to distribute it evenly.

  6. Cool the chicken promptly, divide it into meal-prep portions, and refrigerate or freeze. Serve as a high-protein base with rice, potatoes, wraps, bowls, or another accompaniment.

Notes

The post does not include the promised full recipe, ingredient list, or macro breakdown. Only the use of approximately 5 lb of chicken, a crockpot, shredding, and meal-prep applications are stated. Seasonings, liquid, cooking times, and portion count are practical estimates and should not be treated as the creator's exact recipe. Refrigerate portions for up to 4 days or freeze for longer storage; reheat until steaming hot.
