I had crockpot chicken on the menu, and was planning the usual taco chicken with seasoning and beer. Then I came across this recipe and decided to try it instead. What a success! I was slightly skeptical of the amount of balsamic, but the end result was the wonderful vinegar flavor with only a very slight vinegar bite. We enjoyed the chicken for dinner with our usual roasted veggies and then had leftovers for lunch the next day. Thanks for sharing!
P.S. Because I don’t have time in the morning, I put everything in the crockpot liner the night before, refrigerated it, and then popped it in the crockpot and turned it on low before I left for work. It was in for about 11 hours until shredding and then another hour and a half (keep warm) until we ate. On work days, I can’t follow recipes that call for anything less than 12 hours, but it usually works out anyway. I mixed the spices with the vinegar and tomatoes. In the crockpot liner, I layered some onion and a little of the vinegar mix, placed three (large) chicken breasts on top, covered with remaining onion, and then poured the rest of the vinegar mixture on top. Perfect!
