Based on my crock pot experimentation guidelines, this recipe is the jam for versatile leftovers. I cooked this chicken on a weekend, and ate it all week on salads, sandwiches, and pizzas.
BBQ Shredded Chicken
Makes however many meals you can squeeze out
3-4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
3/4 c. ketchup
1 bottle of BBQ sauce (I used Sweet Baby Ray's)
1 Tbsp. apple cider vinegar
1 Tbsp. Worcestershire sauce
1 Tbsp. soy sauce
1 Tbsp. brown sugar
1/2 c. chopped onion
2 large garlic cloves, minced
1/4 - 1/2 tsp. red pepper flakes
Spray crock pot with cooking spray. Place chicken in crock pot. Mix rest of ingredients in a bowl, and pour over chicken. Cook on low 7-8 hours. When ready, remove chicken and shred it with two forks. Add some of the sauce, coating chicken with desired amount.
I got a little crazy with the sauce, so use it sparingly. It's much easier to add than to take away.

ReplyDeleteHi Suze! I used thawed chicken on this one. Good luck! I hope you like it. (And yes, I'm very happy to be home ... and now with my car! Hope y'all stayed warm and toasty!)
