Ingredients

  • 2 pounds Boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 2 tablespoons Olive oil
  • 1 cup Low carb BBQ sauce
  • 2 tablespoons Apple cider vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon Onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
  • 0.5 cup Chicken broth

Directions

Step 1

Begin by seasoning the chicken breasts with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and smoked paprika. Ensure the seasoning is evenly distributed on both sides of the chicken breasts.

Step 2

In a slow cooker, pour the olive oil over the bottom to prevent sticking. Lay the seasoned chicken breasts in a single layer inside the cooker.

Step 3

In a small bowl, mix together the low carb BBQ sauce, apple cider vinegar, and chicken broth until well combined.

Step 4

Pour the BBQ sauce mixture over the chicken breasts, ensuring they are fully coated.

Step 5

Set the slow cooker to low and cook for 4 to 5 hours, or until the chicken is tender and can be easily shredded with a fork.

Step 6

Once cooked, remove the chicken breasts from the slow cooker and place them on a cutting board. Use two forks to shred the chicken finely.

Step 7

Return the shredded chicken to the slow cooker and mix it thoroughly with the BBQ sauce.

Step 8

Serve the low carb pulled BBQ chicken hot. It can be enjoyed on its own or with low-carb accompaniments such as lettuce wraps or low-carb buns.
