Description
A delightful and effortless crockpot chicken dish flavored with Sweet Baby Ray’s BBQ sauce, perfect for busy weeknights or lazy Sundays.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2–3 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs or breasts
- 1 cup Sweet Baby Ray’s BBQ sauce
- 1/2 cup chicken broth (or vegetable broth)
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce (or soy sauce)
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- Optional: 1/4 cup brown sugar or honey
- Optional: Fresh herbs like parsley or cilantro for garnish
Instructions
- Start by placing the chicken in the bottom of your crockpot. If you’re using chicken breasts, make sure to pound them to an even thickness.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the Sweet Baby Ray’s BBQ sauce, chicken broth, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper. If using brown sugar or honey, add that in too. Stir until well mixed, then pour the mixture over the chicken.
- Secure the lid on your crockpot and set it to low for 4-6 hours or high for 2-3 hours. Check that the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
- Once cooked, remove the chicken from the pot and let it rest for a few minutes. Shred or chop it into chunks, then mix it back with the sauce.
Notes
For a healthier option, use skinless chicken breasts or replace the BBQ sauce with a lower-sugar homemade version.
