Season your chicken breast with salt, garlic powder, onion powder, and pepper.
Place your chicken in your crockpot and cover them with the chicken broth.
Cook on low for 4 hours, or until the chicken reaches 165 degrees. The chicken should be cooked through, and will be sliceable.You can cook it past this point, though, it will shred instead of slice. If you want shredded chicken, you can cook for up to 8 hours.
Let the chicken rest on a cutting board for 10 minutes before slicing (covered lightly with foil). Slice and serve OR place in fridge and slice later in the week when you need it.
Strain your chicken broth using a sieve and remove all of the bits of chicken and fat. Take the strained chicken broth and use in your recipes right away or freeze.

Notes
This recipe is specifically to use the chicken breast into other dishes, so the seasonings are very simple. Additional seasoning that can pair with lots of meals, is paprika, and thyme.
Keep the breasts whole until you are ready to use them. Slice it just before adding it to your desired recipe. The chicken will stay moister and taste fresher if you slice as needed.
Cooked chicken is good in the refrigerator for 3-4 days. Or in the freezer for 2 months.
