Craving juicy, fall-apart chicken without the fuss? The slow cooker is your secret weapon! But the million-dollar question is: how long to slow cook chicken breast for optimal tenderness? The answer depends on your cooker and the heat setting.
**Low & Slow Wins the Race:**
For the most succulent results, aim for 6-8 hours on low. This gentle cooking method ensures the chicken stays moist and flavorful.
**Need it Faster? Go High!**
If you're short on time, 3-4 hours on high will do the trick. However, keep a closer eye on it to prevent overcooking. Chicken breast dries out quickly when overcooked, especially on high heat.
**Don't Forget the Extras!**
Adding a flavorful sauce, broth, or veggies beneath the chicken breast helps retain moisture and infuses incredible flavor. Experiment with your favorite seasonings and enjoy a delicious, effortless meal!
