If the house is a crockin'...
Sometimes my work week is so freakin' busy that I don't have time to spend 2 hours cooking a lovely, nutritious meal for Chris and I. When I know I've got a hectic few days ahead of me, I pull out the trusty crock pot and start hunting down recipes. Last week I made this and it was delicious!
This serves 4 people, so we had some leftovers which were great re-heated.
2 large skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
1/2 a medium-sized red onion (sliced)
1/2 cup ketchup
1 tablespoon dijon mustard
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 cup maple syrup
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1/4 teaspoon chili powder
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
4 sandwich rolls, split
1.Place the chicken breasts into the bottom of a slow cooker. Place sliced onions on top of chicken. In a bowl, stir together the ketchup, dijon mustard, lemon juice, garlic powder, maple syrup, Worcestershire sauce, chili powder, and cayenne pepper until the mixture is well blended.
2.Pour the sauce over the chicken, set the cooker to Low, and cook for 6 -8 hours. Shred the chicken with two forks. Mix another batch of the homemade BBQ sauce and pour over the shredded chicken, cook for 30 more minutes. Serve the chicken and sauce spooned into the sandwich rolls.
