Crockpot Savory Chicken Recipe

One of my friends, Amy, emailed this recipe ages ago to me. To be honest, I was a little skeptical. How could something so simple be good?

I am pretty impressed with this Italian shredded chicken recipe. It was simply wonderful.

Now it is a family favorite and one of my go to easy recipes for busy nights. Since you only need 3 things to make this, it is so easy to toss and go. It is simple enough that even during crazy busy mornings, you can throw this in the crock pot. 

I love coming home to dinner ready to enjoy. The flavor of the onion soup mix and the Italian dressing really make the best slow cooked chicken dish. Trust me on this because you will love it!

Make sure you have a good slow cooker to make this crock pot savory chicken.

If you are in the market for something new, I really love my Instant Pot Aura. The nice thing about this is you can brown the meat in the same slow cooker. It is so handy to just have the one pan to clean.

It has become of my favorite kitchen appliances. I also really like this crockpot as well.  I use this all the time and it’s great.

My favorite feature is that you can lock the lid down. This is awesome for when you need to take the crockpot somewhere.

I often use the slow cooker to take dishes to potluck events and this feature is amazing! There are several others on sale here.

Another favorite is this programmable crock pot  for when I am am not at home all day. I love coming home to a nice meal ready and waiting!

I also like to use crock pot liners to make clean up a breeze. These are worth every penny and save a ton of time.

You can use your instant pot or pressure cooker if you prefer.
