Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 cups BBQ sauce
- 3 medium Bell peppers (any color, sliced)
- 1 medium Onion (sliced)
- 2 cloves Garlic (minced)
- 0.5 cups Chicken broth
- 1 teaspoons Smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
Instructions
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced onion and garlic, cooking until softened and aromatic, about 3-5 minutes.
Layer the sliced bell peppers in the bottom of the crock pot. Spread the cooked onion and garlic over the peppers.
Place the chicken breasts on top of the vegetables in the crock pot.
In a small bowl, combine the BBQ sauce, chicken broth, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix until smooth.
Pour the BBQ sauce mixture over the chicken breasts, making sure they are evenly coated.
Cover the crock pot with its lid and cook on low heat for 6-7 hours or on high heat for 3-4 hours, until the chicken is fully cooked and tender.
Using two forks, shred the chicken directly in the crock pot, mixing well to coat the shredded pieces in the BBQ sauce and juices.
Serve the BBQ chicken and peppers hot over rice, in sandwich buns, or on a baked potato. Enjoy!
