This slow cooker chicken recipe was tasty and so easy to make. I cooked it on the low setting and found it to be falling apart after 7 hours. We used the chicken for quesadillas. I like having enough extra to freeze for more meals. We used a green salsa this time and I can imagine this is a good way to slow cook chicken with any number of different liquids.
