When you need a really simple, easy meal this is a nice go-to. I turn to the trusty slow cooker for some BBQ chicken that comes together without any work and put it into a sandwich (or a salad if you want something lighter). Literally two ingredients for the chicken, and you can put whatever toppings with it that fit your fancy.
Ingredients:
About 2 lbs fresh or frozen chicken breasts
1 18 oz [ish] bottle of BBQ sauce
Bun
Toppings: cabbage, cilantro, pickles, banana peppers, cheese, etc.
Directions:
1. Put chicken into slow cooker.
2. Cover with BBQ
3. Cook on high 3-4 hours, low 4-6 hours (may need to adjust depending on if chicken is fresh or frozen)
4. Shred with fork after cooking time (should be tender and come apart really easily), let sit on low setting or keep warm to soak up the juices until ready to serve.
*If chicken was fresh to begin with, you can put cooked BBQ chicken in a freezer bag and save for a quick meal for later! Super convenient and nice to do since this makes a large amount all at once.
