## Equipment

- crock pot
- spoon

## Tips

- Start with frozen chicken breast in the crock pot as it's cheaper and slow cooking negates the need for more expensive fresh chicken.
- To shred the chicken, simply run a spoon through it in the crock pot; it will shred in place and stir the sauce simultaneously.
- Bow tie pasta is recommended as the best pairing for this dish.
