How To Make This Carnivore Crack Chicken Recipe

The good news about this recipe is that it can be made in four different ways, making it perfect for a weeknight dinner.

To make things easier for you, I am including all the ways you can make this addictive chicken recipe so you have zero excuses as to why you should make it.

Crock-Pot, Slow Cooker Crack Carnivore Chicken 

To make this carnivore chicken recipe in the slow cooker, simply place the chicken breasts in the crockpot along with the cream cheese and seasonings. Cover and cook on high for 4 hours or on low for 6 hours.

Once the chicken is cooked through, shred it and stir in the shredded cheddar cheese and bacon pieces until everything is well combined.

Oven, Crack Chicken

For the oven method, place the chicken breasts in a baking dish with a bit of water and butter, then top with cream cheese and seasonings.

Bake at 350°F for about 40 minutes, then shred the chicken and mix in the cheese and bacon.

Instant-Pot Option

If you're using an Instant Pot, add the chicken, cream cheese, and seasonings, then pressure cook for 10 minutes.

After releasing the pressure, shred the chicken and stir in the remaining ingredients.

Carnivore Rotisserie Crack Chicken

For a quick shortcut, you can use two shredded breasts from a rotisserie chicken instead-just skip the salt and pepper, and mix the warm meat with cream cheese, cheddar, and bacon until heated through.

How To Quickly Shred Your Chicken

I have several ways you can shred your chicken easily. The following are my tips.

• Two-Forks- Once the allotted cooking time has passed, you'll shred the chicken by taking it out of the crockpot, oven dish, or Insta pot and using the two-fork method, where you hold one end of the chicken while you pull the other fork across the flesh of the chicken until it shreds.
• Food Processor: If you have a large food processor, this method works like a charm. Simply add the chicken and process until it shreds.
• Stand-up Mixer/Hand Mixer- You can also shred the chicken in a stand-up mixer with a paddle attachment or a handheld one. This happens to be my favorite since it's so quick.
