Ingredients
- 3 pounds Turkey breast (boneless, skinless)
- 1 cup Chicken broth
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoons Dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
Directions
Step 1
Place the turkey breast in the bottom of the crock pot.
Step 2
Pour the chicken broth over the turkey to keep it moist during cooking.
Step 3
In a small bowl, mix together the onion powder, garlic powder, paprika, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper.
Step 4
Sprinkle the spice mixture evenly over the turkey, ensuring it is well coated.
Step 5
Cut the butter into small pieces and scatter them over the top of the turkey.
Step 6
Cover the crock pot with its lid, and set it to cook on low for 6-7 hours or on high for 3-4 hours, until the turkey is fully cooked and tender.
Step 7
Once cooked, use two forks to shred the turkey directly in the crock pot, mixing it with the juices in the bottom of the pot for additional flavor.
Step 8
Serve the shredded turkey immediately or store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. It can also be frozen for up to 2 months.
