Easy Healthy Crockpot Salsa Chicken! The best shredded chicken recipe for a simple meal prep or low calorie wholesome dinners or lunches. Low Calorie + Gluten Free + Paleo + Low Carb
Servings: 6 servings
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 lb chicken breast boneless, skinless
- 16 oz red salsa
- 1/2 cup chicken broth no sodium added
- 1 green bell pepper diced
- 1 red bell pepper diced
- 1 orange bell pepper diced
- 1 yellow bell pepper diced
- salt and pepper to taste
- 10 oz cabbage shredded
Instructions
- Place all ingredients except the cabbage in a crockpot except the cabbage. Cover and set to cook on high for 4-5 hours or low 8 hours.
- Remove the cover of the crockpot and shred the chicken by pulling it apart with two forks. If it shreds easily, it is done. If it does not shred easily, it needs to cook slightly longer.
- Once the chicken is done and shredded, stir in the cabbage until it has wilted down into the sauce. It will take a few minutes to stir and wilt it in completely, but it will eventually.
- Serve the shredded chicken over lettuce, cauliflower rice, brown rice or quinoa and with more veggies.
- Store in the refrigerator up to 7 days.
Notes
- One serving is approximately 1 1/2 to 2 cups.
