I love using my crockpot all winter long. I love the smell of comfort food cooking and then enjoying a nice hot meal at the end of a cold day. But, just because it is summer and not at all cold outside doesn’t mean that the crockpot needs to collect dust. I love this chicken, because I can throw it in the crockpot in the morning and then head out for a day at the pool and still return home to a very delicious dinner.

I, personally, love this chicken paired with a baked potato. It makes a great BBQ chicken sandwich as well. And I love that it freezes so well. Cook once and eat twice. 😉 I often package about half of the shredded chicken to be eaten at a later time.

Zesty BBQ Chicken

Ingredients:

5-6 chicken breasts

12 oz BBQ sauce

1/2 cup Zesty Italian Dressing

1/4 cup brown sugar

2 Tbls. Worcestershire sauce

Directions:

Combine all ingredients except the chicken in a medium bowl. Place the chicken breasts in the crockpot and pour BBQ mixture over the top. Cook on high 4-6 hours or on low 8-10 hours. Before serving shred the chicken.

This goes great over the top of a baked potato or as a BBQ chicken sandwich.

*This freezes really well, so save any leftovers!!
