Enjoy a tasty Shredded Chicken Salad! A mix of tender chicken breast, crunchy almonds, grapes, and fresh tarragon to pack it with flavor. Serve cold with sandwiches, crackers, or in lettuce cups! 


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon pepper
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 cup low sodium chicken broth
  • ½ cup mayonnaise 
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh tarragon leaves (can also use parsley)
  • 1 cup (about 2 stalks) diced celery

Instructions

  1. Add the chicken breasts to the bottom of your slow cooker. Sprinkle with salt, pepper and garlic powder. Pour in chicken broth.
  2. Cook on LOW for 6-8 hours or HIGH for 3-4 hours. Remove chicken from the slow cooker and shred with two forks or in a bowl with a hand mixer.
