Or, you can freeze it to use for later! Out of all of the recipes on my blog, I have to say this simple, plain Jane looking crockpot full of chicken is one of my absolute favorites. It’s one of those recipes that is a major lifesaver for me to keep on hand for all of the meal time madness. This tastes just as good as a rotisserie chicken, but, you can make a BIG batch of it right at home and it lasts for up to two months in the freezer! My recipe calls for using about 3 pounds of chicken – for me this is four large chicken breasts.
It goes right into the crockpot with some chicken broth and seasonings, and is really “set and forget” recipe because it can cook on low all day and still be amazingly juicy! So, for the 3 pounds of chicken – I get about 6 cups of shredded chicken total. Then, I just let it cool after shredding and save about two cups in the refrigerator for the week, and freeze the rest. I typically save 1-2 cups per zip-lock back, but you can portion it out however you’d like!
