Ingredients

Servings
  • 2-3 lbs. chicken breast trimmed of excess fat, boneless, skinless
  • 1 medium yellow onion , sliced (optional)
  • 1 Tbsp light brown sugar packed
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion dried minced
  • 1 tsp oregano dried
  • 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. chicken broth reduced sodium if available, fat free

Instructions

  1. If using onion, add to bottom of slow cooker. Top with chicken, then all seasonings. Rub seasonings into the chicken.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
