slow cooker chicken

Ingredients

• 2.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 1/2 cup honey
• 1/4 cup soy sauce
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

1. Place chicken breasts in your slow cooker.
2. In a bowl, whisk together honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, apple cider vinegar, paprika, and black pepper.
3. Pour the honey garlic mixture over the chicken breasts.
4. Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 3-4 hours, or until the chicken is easily shredded with a fork.
5. Shred the chicken directly in the slow cooker before serving.

Notes

• For a stickier sauce, remove the chicken at the end of cooking and transfer the sauce to a saucepan. Bring to a simmer and cook for 5-10 minutes, or until slightly thickened.
• Serve over rice, quinoa, or mashed potatoes.
• This recipe is great for meal prepping – it will keep in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
• To prevent the chicken from drying out, add 1/2 cup of chicken broth to the slow cooker.
