Instructions
Here are the simple steps to create Delicious Slow Cooker Hunters Chicken:
1. Prepare the Chicken: Season the chicken breasts on both sides with salt, pepper, thyme, and smoked paprika.
2. Sauté Vegetables: In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Sauté the chopped onions and minced garlic until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
3. Place in Slow Cooker: Transfer the sautéed mixture into the bottom of the slow cooker. Lay the seasoned chicken breasts on top.
4. Add Tomatoes: Pour the diced tomatoes (with juices) over the chicken, spreading them evenly.
5. Add Mushrooms and Broth: Add the sliced mushrooms and chicken broth to the slow cooker.
6. Cook: Cover and cook on high for 3-4 hours or low for 6-8 hours, until the chicken is tender and easily shreds with a fork.
7. Shred Chicken: Once cooked, remove the chicken breasts and shred them using two forks. Return shredded chicken to the slow cooker and stir to combine.
8. Taste and Adjust: Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning with more salt or pepper if needed.
9. Serve: Allow it to sit for a few minutes in the slow cooker before transferring to a serving dish or directly to plates.
