This is the ultimate meal prep chicken recipe. It’s so easy to make (you literally place everything in a slow cooker and stir!) and can be used in many ways. Try it in tacos or burritos, on sandwiches or wraps, as a pizza topping, a jacket potato filling or served with rice or pasta. It’s even great with a side of veg or mixed through salad.
