This is so ridiculously easy, there’s really no recipe; the only reason I’m posting it is that some of you might not have heard of this before. If so, enlightenment awaits!
Take about 1 lb boneless chicken (any size pieces). Season with salt and pepper on both sides. Place in slow cooker on low and cover with 8-12 oz your favorite salsa (red or green, store-bought or homemade, doesn’t matter). Cook at least 6 hours, but can go all day. When done, it will practically shred itself.

We used this for some yummy chicken nachos, then some cheesy Mexican pasta. I’ve also done chicken enchiladas with it. The possibilities are endless! Thanks to my friend and co-worker Emily for sharing this method with me.
