Crock Pot BBQ Chicken

BBQ Chicken
12 frozen boneless skinless chicken breast tenders
2 Cups BBQ sauce*
1/2 cup Italian dressing*
2 TBSP Worcestershire sauce.

Throw all ingredients in a crock pot. Cook on low for 7 hours. Shred with fork. Serve over a baked potato (Daddy's) or bed of spinach (Skinny Mom's). Any way you want!



*The best way to eliminate excess sugars and preservatives? Make your own! And it couldn't be easier and tastes SO much better!

Barbecue Sauce
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup finely chopped red onion
4 TBSP white vinegar
2 TBSP yellow mustard
2 TBSP Worcestershire sauce
1/2 tsp celery seeds
1/4 tsp garlic powder
2 tsp paprika
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper

This is my "crock pot" bbq sauce. I almost NEVER use a measuring cup/spoon so the measurements are approximate. I use this recipe often for pork and chicken. Since it isn't a dark sauce, I sometime mix in a couple TBSP of bottled Hickory BBQ sauce to give it a smoky flavor and to give it color.

Italian Dressing
1 tablespoon garlic salt
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 tablespoon white sugar
2 tablespoons dried oregano
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon dried basil
1 tablespoon dried parsley
1/4 teaspoon celery salt
2 tablespoons salt

Let your toddler measure the dry ingredients into a Tupperware container and shake to mix! To prepare dressing whisk together 1/4 white vinegar, 2/3 cup canola oil, 2 tablespoons water and 2 tablespoons of the dry mix. Let the ingredients "marry" overnight!
