  • It is practically impossible to mess up and tastes even better the next day
02 -
  • The sauce will look thin at first but thickens beautifully as it cooks down with the chicken juices
  • Shredding the chicken at the end is what transforms this from good to absolutely incredible
03 -
  • Spray your slow cooker insert with cooking oil first to make cleanup almost nonexistent
  • The smoked paprika is subtle but worth it if you want that grilled flavor without actually grilling
