Description

A shortcut to a fantastic BBQ chicken dinner…with a twist! Guava BBQ sauce, raisins and sliced onions take this chicken to a new level of deliciousness.

Ingredients

  • 2 pounds Skinless Chicken Breasts
  • 1 pinch Salt And Pepper, to taste
  • 1 whole Medium Onion, Sliced
  • ¼ cups Raisins
  • 1 bottle Fruity Barbecue Sauce (18-20 Ounce Bottle, Guava, Mango Or Pineapple)
  • 2 Tablespoons Balsamic Vinegar
  • 6 whole Favorite Sandwich Buns

Preparation

Place chicken breasts into slow cooker and sprinkle salt and pepper to both sides. Add sliced onion and raisins. Pour 3/4 of the bottle of barbecue sauce and 2 splashes balsamic vinegar over chicken and combine. Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours.

When cooking is complete, take 2 forks and gently pull apart chicken breasts. Take remainder of barbecue sauce and pour over chicken and combine. I like to add a little water to the bottle and swirl to pick up any leftover sauce and add that as well. Let the shredded chicken sit in crock-pot uncovered for about 15 minutes to warm up the additional sauce.

Add shredded chicken to your favorite sandwich bun and enjoy!

This was excellent and so easy! Chicken was tender and the sauce was great. I had trouble finding a fruity BBQ sauce, and used a sweet/tangy one. It was good – a little on the sweet side (but I think that’s due to the BBQ brand). It would be delicious with any sauce. The onions and raisins add a great flavor!

Super easy and very tasty! I did omit raisins, not a fan of those. I also didn’t add as much BBQ sauce and it was wonderful!!

Loved this recipe! I used a hawaiian bbq sauce and it was awesome. Thanks!

Very good and very easy. It doesn’t taste easy though, tastes like you spent more time on it than you did. I love how the chicken just falls apart. 2 chicken breasts makes enough for us to have 6-8 sandwiches.

We LOVED this. I had it for dinner and again for lunch today. I’m not a huge fan of extra sweet BBQ sauce, so I used the regular Trader Joe’s kind, which was slightly sweet and a little spicy. The chicken melted in my mouth. It was a little saucy, though, so I don’t I’ll be putting the rest of the BBQ sauce in at the end as suggested. Thanks for a great recipe!!
