Share:
Ingredients
- 2-3 lbs. boneless, skinless chicken breasts , trimmed of excess fat
- 1 medium yellow onion , sliced (optional)
- 1 Tbsp packed light brown sugar
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp dried minced onion
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- 1 tsp kosher salt
- 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 8 oz. Guinness draught beer (or your favorite beer)
- 6 oz. fat free chicken broth (reduced sodium if available)
Instructions
- If using onion, add to bottom of slow cooker. Top with chicken, then all seasonings. Rub seasonings into the chicken.
- Pour beer and chicken broth into the slow cooker, cover, and cook on LOW 5-6 hours, until chicken is tender and shreds easily with a fork. Chicken can also be cooked on HIGH for 2-3 hours.
- Shred chicken with two forks and serve with extra juice on the side if desired. Store leftovers in the refrigerator, sealed, for 3-4 days (only reheating the portion you want to eat). Alternately, place shredded chicken into freezer ziploc bags and freeze for several months (make sure they're well sealed).
Notes
- If your chicken broth isn't reduced sodium, reduce salt amount down to 1/2 tsp.
- For a stronger beer flavor, add up to 12 oz of beer.
