- Don't overcrowd the slow cooker: Make sure to leave enough space between the chicken pieces so that they can cook evenly.
- Cook on low for best results: Cooking the chicken on low for 6-8 hours will help to keep it moist and tender. If you're short on time, you can cook it on high for 3-4 hours, but the chicken may be slightly less tender.
