This is a very kid-friendly meal, lighter than beef-based meatball or sloppy joe sandwiches, and a super easy supper to prepare.   More Slow-Cooker Supper Recipes That Aren’t Stew Unstuffed Peppers served with rice Meat Spaghetti and Spinach Beer Kielbasa Sausages  

Ingredients

Main ingredients

  • 1/4 cup barbecue sauce

  • salt, to taste

  • black pepper, to taste

  • rolls or pita bread, for serving

  • coleslaw

  • sour pickles (store-bought or make your own pickles)

Directions

Making the Chicken

1.

Combine chicken cutlets, onion, garlic, pepper, tomato sauce, mustard, maple syrup, soy sauce, and barbecue sauce in a slow cooker. Season with salt and pepper.

2.

Cook on high for four hours. While the chicken mixture is still in the slow cooker, using a potato masher, mash the chicken. It will turn into shredded chicken pieces.

3.

Serve on rolls or in pita bread, with coleslaw and sour pickles.

Notes:

This supper freezes extremely well. Store in an airtight container and reheat in a pot.

Sure, cover tightly and bake on 350 for about 45 minutes or until cooked through. Then shred and proceed as normal.

I’m wondering if I can put this up on low right before Shabbos in a crock pot for lunch. Or will it burn?

Chicken tends to get very dry when cooked for so long. The longest I would suggest is 8 hours on low, and even then, boneless skinless chicken thighs would be better.

Honey or corn syrup can be substituted for the maple syrup. Cutlets are easiest to pull once cooked but anything can be used and shredded.
