If you haven't yet dedicded on what to fix for your weekend get together with your family... or you need just one more thing for the "carry-in" this is it! It's one of those easy throw together and leave it to do it on thing, kind of thing. lol...! Here's what you need:
~ set your crock pot to HIGH
~ Catchup
~ about a 1/2 cup or so of honey
~ salt and pepper to taste
~ Cinnamon, dash
~ Ground Ginger, dash
~ Paprika, dash
~ 1/4 - 1/2 cup of Brown Sugar
~ 1/2 of a large Onion, rough chopped
~ 3 or 4 Cloves of minced Garlic
~ Cayenne Pepper, dash (optional)
~ 3 or 4 medium Chicken Breasts thawed and cut into strips or chunks
In a 2-quart sized crock pot add all of the above ingredients minus the chicken. Stir and taste. Add a dash more of your ingredients to bring it to a taste you are happy with. I have made this so many times that I KNOW the taste I am after. I just start adding a little of this and a little more of that until I arrive at that PERFECT taste. Go sparingly with the cinnamon. I say that and then in the video below, I accidentally added the cinnamon twice. Oh well, all is good... I added the Cayenne Pepper and of course that makes everything all right! Can I get an AMEN?! lol... I LOVE-LOVE-LOVE the sweet/hot combo.
When you are satisfied with your BBQ, drop in your chicken, making sure your crock pot is on High and walk away. Since you are making a relativly small amount in a smaller crock pot the cook time is not quite as long. 2 /12 to 3 hours the chicken is usuall done. In this video by the time we got around to eating it, it was closer to 4 hours and it was WELL done.
* As a side note... the kids at school this year are calling me Ms. D. I thought naming one of my recipes for them would be a nice tribute. Hugs to all my Elwood Haynes buddies!
Enjoy!
