For extra flavor, try browning the chicken breasts in a skillet before adding them to the slow cooker. If you don't have chicken broth, you can use water with a chicken bouillon cube. This recipe is easily adaptable to other proteins, such as ground beef or shredded pork. Consider adding a can of diced tomatoes or a chopped onion to the slow cooker for added texture and flavor.
