These Shredded Chicken Recipes are easy dinner ideas that are perfect for meal prep because they all start with easy shredded chicken (Instant Pot and Crockpot recipes included).
In a large skillet, whisk together broth, Italian seasoning, seasoning salt, pepper and garlic powder.
Add chicken breasts to the pan and bring to a simmer over high heat.
Reduce heat to a low simmer (don't boil!) over low or medium-low heat and cover.
Cook for 15-20 minutes, until a meat thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the chicken breasts reads at least 165 degrees F.
Remove chicken from the pan and shred using two forks or an electric mixer. Serve or place back into the liquid to keep warm and moist.
Store in the liquid in the refrigerator, or reserve the liquid for another use (it has great flavor!). Cooked chicken can be stored up to 4 days in the fridge or 3 months in the freezer.
