If the sauce separates after cooking, remove the chicken and vegetables. Whisk the sauce in the slow cooker until smooth, then return the chicken to the pot.
You can serve the chicken whole or shred it using two forks or a mixer.
For variations, you can add green beans or bell pepper. To make the sauce thicker, add softened diced cream cheese.
