Slow cooker recipes that require lots of prep (tons of chopping and/or browning or sautéing) undermine the convenience promised by the appliance. So this recipe delivers ultimate ease with no chopping or browning—just stir everything together in the cooker (no need to thaw the veggies) and let it go. At the end, you’ll shred the chicken, which takes almost no time. 4 points - 2/2023
