Ingredients

  • ¼ lb chicken boneless, skinless; thighs or breasts

Instructions

  • Place chicken in slow cooker.  Add salsa and toss the chicken.  Turn the slow cooker to low for 4-6 hours or high for 3-4. 
  • You want the chicken to be cooked so it easily shreds. The salsa will keep it moist so don't worry too much about overcooking.   
  • Shred the chicken, in the slow cooker, by using 2 forks. Keep on warm setting until ready to serve!
