Como fazer Barbecue Pulled Chicken With Marinated Cucumbers

  1. **Prepare the Chicken Marinade:** In a bowl, combine 1/4 cup brown sugar, 2 tablespoons paprika, 1 tablespoon garlic powder, 1 tablespoon onion powder, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
  2. **Marinate the Chicken:** Rub the brown sugar mixture evenly over 2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts.
  3. **Sear the Chicken:** Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook for 2 minutes per side, until lightly browned.
  4. **Sauté Onions:** Remove chicken from skillet. Add 1/2 cup chopped onion to the skillet and sauté for 2 minutes, or until tender.
  5. **Simmer the Chicken:** Return the chicken to the skillet. Pour in 1 cup chicken broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and easily shreds.
  6. **Shred the Chicken:** Remove the chicken from the skillet and shred using two forks.
  7. **Reduce the Sauce:** Return the shredded chicken to the skillet. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer uncovered for 15 minutes, or until the liquid has reduced and the sauce has thickened.
  8. **Add Balsamic:** Stir in 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar.
  9. **Marinate Cucumbers:** While the chicken simmers, prepare the cucumbers: In a large zip-top bag, combine 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar, 1/4 cup water, 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Add 2 cups thinly sliced cucumbers.
  10. **Chill Cucumbers:** Seal the bag and refrigerate for 10 minutes.
  11. **Assemble the Sandwiches:** Spoon 1 cup of the pulled chicken mixture onto the bottom half of each bun. Top with 1/4 cup of the marinated cucumber mixture and the top half of the bun.
  12. **Serve:** Serve immediately and enjoy!
