Notes

For extra flavor, consider adding garlic powder or onion powder when seasoning the chicken. You can include vegetables like carrots or celery in the slow cooker for a heartier dish. For thicker gravy, let it cook longer after shredding the chicken or add a little cornstarch mixed with water. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days, or freeze for 2-3 months.
