My Ohio friend introduced us to this dish, and we seriously couldn't stop eating it!

Slow Cooker Ohio Shredded Chicken Sandwiches are a classic comfort food dish that originated in the state of Ohio, United States. This dish holds a special significance in Ohio, where it is often served at gatherings, potlucks, and tailgate parties. The slow-cooked, tender chicken paired with a tangy homemade barbecue sauce makes for a delicious and satisfying sandwich that is loved by people of all ages.

You can enjoy these sandwiches in several ways: first, the classic style, where the tender shredded chicken is piled onto soft hamburger buns or sandwich rolls, complemented by a dollop of coleslaw for a refreshing crunch. Alternatively, transform them into a BBQ extravaganza by heaping the shredded chicken onto a toasted bun, accompanied by baked beans and cornbread, while adding pickle chips for a zesty punch. For those seeking a healthier option, opt for whole wheat buns or lettuce wraps to hold the succulent chicken, pairing it with a side salad or steamed vegetables to create a well-rounded and nutritious meal.

Ingredients:

3 pounds of boneless and skinless chicken breasts
1 sleeve of crushed Ritz crackers
1 cup of chicken-flavored stuffing mixture
2 cans (10 ounces each) of cream of chicken soup
Sufficient chicken broth or water as required
Hamburger buns for serving

Instructions:

1. Place the boneless chicken breasts in the slow cooker.

2. In a bowl, mix the chicken-flavored stuffing mix and crushed Ritz crackers. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the chicken.

3. In a separate bowl, combine the cream of chicken soup with enough chicken broth or water to create a thick but pourable sauce. Pour this sauce over the chicken and stuffing mixture.

Cover the slow cooker and cook on low for 6-7 hours or until the chicken is tender and easily shredded with a fork.

Once the chicken is cooked, shred it using two forks directly in the slow cooker and mix it with the sauce.

Serve the shredded chicken on hamburger buns, and enjoy your Slow Cooker Ohio Chicken Sandwiches!
