Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 cup Low-sugar BBQ sauce
- 2 tablespoons Apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Optional: Liquid smoke
Instructions
Spray the inside of your slow cooker with non-stick cooking spray or use a slow cooker liner for easy cleanup.
Place the chicken breasts in a single layer at the bottom of the slow cooker.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the low-sugar BBQ sauce, apple cider vinegar, garlic powder, paprika, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and the optional liquid smoke if desired.
Pour the BBQ sauce mixture evenly over the chicken breasts, ensuring all the pieces are coated.
Cover the slow cooker with the lid and set it to cook on low for 6 hours or on high for 4 hours.
When cooking time is complete, use two forks to shred the chicken directly in the slow cooker. Mix the shredded chicken with the sauce to ensure it's evenly coated.
Serve the BBQ chicken on its own, in a sandwich, or over a salad for a low-calorie meal. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
