Slow Cooked Chicken
1
Place the chicken thighs, bone broth, and sea salt into the slow cooker. Cover and cook on low for 6 hours until the meat is falling apart.
Egg Yolk Emulsion
2
Gently melt the butter in a small pan. In a heat-safe bowl, whisk the egg yolks. Slowly ladle 50ml of the hot chicken cooking liquid from the slow cooker into the egg yolks while whisking vigorously to temper them without scrambling. Slowly whisk in the melted butter until a thick, creamy sauce forms.

Shred the chicken thighs with two forks directly in the slow cooker. Pour the warm egg yolk emulsion over the hot shredded chicken and toss quickly until every shred is beautifully glazed. Divide into bowls and serve immediately.
