Ingredients
  

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 cup BBQ sauce (sugar-free if preferred)
1 medium onion, chopped
1 bell pepper, sliced
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional)
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
Salt and pepper to taste

Equipment

Method
 

Prepare the Ingredients: Start by chopping the onions and slicing the bell peppers. This will allow the vegetables to cook evenly.
    Season the Chicken: In a bowl, mix the garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Rub the spices onto the chicken breasts for extra flavor.
      Add to the Crock Pot: Place the chicken breasts, chopped onions, and bell peppers in the crock pot. Pour the BBQ sauce, apple cider vinegar, and honey (if using) over the chicken.
        Cook: Set the crock pot to low and let it cook for 4-6 hours, or until the chicken is tender and easy to shred.
          Shred and Serve: Use tongs or two forks to shred the chicken. Mix it with the sauce and serve!
