Shredded Chicken Recipe
Directions
  • If using oven instead of crockpot, preheat to 350º F.
  • Place 5 to 6 pounds of chicken in a Dutch oven or crockpot.
  • In a bowl, mix together dry soup, black pepper and concentrated chicken soup base. Pour soup base mixture over chicken. Add water to pan to cover half of the chicken. Omit water, if using a crockpot.
  • Oven bake a minimum of 4 hours, or in a crock pot, set temperature on high for 20 minutes, then cook on low 8 to 10 hours. Chicken is finished cooking when it pulls apart easily. Allow meat to cool, then shred.
  • Skim any excess fat off of remaining juices. Place chicken into remaining juices and reheat for serving.
  • Top with onions, lettuce, or any desired garnish.
