    A delicious and easy way to make gluten free, slow cooker asian shredded chicken, that is perfect topped on rice, in wraps, on nachos or in salads!

    Gluten Free Slow Cooker Asian Shredded Chicken!!

    We all know that slow cookers are a busy person's best friend! They do all the hard work and then reward you with a delicious, tender meal at the end.....what's not to love about slow cookers.

    Well this recipe is made for when you are busy and just want to throw together the ingredients into the slow cooker and have a delicious meal at the end.

    I make this on the weekends, after doing the food shopping in the morning. Come home just after lunchtime, mix the sauce, add the chicken thighs to the slow cooker and viola.... about 4 ½ hours later, dinner is ready.

    We love this Slow Cooker Asian Shredded Chicken on rice, on top of nachos, in tacos and we even have it cold in a salad, when the weather is a bit warmer and in wraps.

    The interesting part about this recipe is that it uses Tamari instead of the common soy sauce. But I hear you ask...what is the difference?

    What is the difference between Soy Sauce and Tamari

    Soy Sauce and Tamari are both made from the byproducts of fermented soybeans, but Tamari is made with no wheat!

    Soy sauce is often thought of as a Chinese sauce whereas Tamari is specifically a Japanese soy sauce. Tamari has a darker colour and richer flavour than the common soy sauce and what I like about it, it is a little less salty than the common soy sauce....oh! and no wheat.
