Slow cooker shredded chicken

I always need shredded chicken for recipes...The usual way I went about making it was to boil on the stove top then painstakingly cut and trim chicken that was usually over cooked and tough (also no good in the intended recipe). I recently attempted to make shredded chicken breast with the slow cooker. This method took longer but the chicken fell apart with just a touch of the fork much much easier and much better results.

Place chicken in slow cooker, cover chicken with water and just a sprinkle of chicken broth for flavor. Cook on high for 4 hours. Remove and shred chicken with fork.
