This is almost too easy to be called a recipe, but I had to share it anyway. I came up with it one night when I wanted a nice meal but wasn't feeling too motivated. I love Crock-Pot cooking!
Hands-Free Mode Off
Equipment
Slow cooker, fork, knife
Ingredients
- 1 -2 lb boneless skinless chicken breast
- 1 (18 ounce) jar of your favorite barbecue sauce (I love K.C. Masterpiece!)
- 1 medium sweet onion, sliced
- 4 -6 hamburger buns
Instructions
Remove all visible fat from the chicken and toss it in the crock pot.
Place the onion slices on top of the chicken.
Pour the barbecue sauce over top.
You may not need the entire jar, just enough to cover the chicken.
Cook it on LOW for 8 hours or until the chicken is nice and tender.
Shred the chicken with a fork and knife; scoop the mixture onto the bottom buns and top it with the top buns.
Or, if you're like my dad, you might prefer leaving the breasts whole and eating it that way.
Voila!
An easy weeknight meal that doesn't heat up your kitchen in the summertime!
I love this with potato chips and a carrot and raisin salad.
