Ingredients:

In a small bowl, mix together garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, dry thyme, salt, and black pepper.
Place the chicken breasts in a large bowl and coat them with 2 tablespoons of avocado oil. Sprinkle the prepared seasoning mixture over the chicken and toss to coat evenly.
Pour the low-sodium chicken broth into your slow cooker.
Place the seasoned chicken breasts in the slow cooker with the chicken broth.
Cook on low for 3-4 hours. If you plan to shred the chicken, cook for 4 hours, but if you intend to slice or dice it, 3 hours will suffice.
Once the cooking is complete, you can shred the chicken directly inside the slow cooker or drain it and shred it separately, discarding the liquid.

Notes:

For a more tender result, we recommend cooking for 4 hours if you plan to shred the chicken, or 3 hours if you intend to slice or dice it.
