Recipe

1
Combine chicken, chicken broth, garlic, oregano, thyme, sun-dried tomatoes, red pepper, salt, and black pepper in a 6- to 8-quart slow cooker. Cook on Low for 4 hours or on High for 2 hours.
2
Use 2 forks or a hand mixer to carefully shred the chicken. Return chicken to the slow cooker; stir in cream cheese, mozzarella, Parmesan cheese, and basil until cheese is melted; keep warm.

Place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain bacon slices on paper towels.

Serve chicken on toasted brioche buns and top with bacon. Enjoy!
