Ingredients
- 4 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 can (14 oz) Cranberry sauce (whole berry)
- 1 cup Barbecue sauce
- 1 medium, diced Onion
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Place the chicken breasts at the bottom of the crock pot in an even layer.
Step 2
In a medium bowl, combine the cranberry sauce, barbecue sauce, diced onion, garlic powder, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until fully combined.
Step 3
Pour the cranberry barbecue mixture over the chicken breasts, ensuring they are fully coated.
Step 4
Cover the crock pot with the lid and set it to cook on HIGH for 4 hours or LOW for 6-8 hours.
Step 5
Once the cooking time is complete, check the chicken for doneness. It should be tender and easily shred with a fork, and the internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C).
Step 6
If desired, shred the chicken with two forks directly in the crock pot and stir it into the sauce for added flavor, or leave the chicken breasts whole.
Step 7
Serve the cranberry barbecue chicken over rice, mashed potatoes, or with a side of vegetables and enjoy!
