Ingredients

The following ingredients have 8 Servings
  • 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))

Instruction

  • 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).
