This will make 2 servings of 8oz chicken protein and 2 cups of mushrooms/peppers give or take, and lots of broth. So pull up a big bowl! Great for cold days.

Things you will need.

4 chicken breasts.

*i get the skinless/boneless kind*

NOTE: easy to prepare each piece is about 4oz so use 2 of them per person to get your 8oz of protein.

These you can find in places like stop and shop etc.

This is the one I use. I set it for HIGH and for 4hrs.

Small amount of sea salt.

Add in the chicken and pre cook it till its white.. DON'T over cook. you only want to get the outside white and warm.. with all the spices stuck to it.

Once cooked part way though.. Add into the slow cooker with the broth/mushrooms/peppers

Check it at 2hr's 4hr's add an hour extra if needed. 

Cut open a larger chuck of chicken to see if its white.. Should NOT be pink. If it is pink add more time.
