How to Make Bachelor Bbq Chicken

  1. In a large pot or Dutch oven, combine 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts, 1 cup BBQ sauce, 1/2 cup chicken broth, 1 tbsp olive oil, 1 tsp garlic powder, 1/2 tsp onion powder, and 1/4 tsp black pepper.
  2. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat.
  3. Reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and easily shreds with a fork.
  4. Remove the chicken from the pot and shred it with two forks.
  5. Return the shredded chicken to the pot and stir to coat in the sauce. Simmer for another 2-3 minutes to thicken the sauce slightly.
  6. Serve on buns, over rice, or with your favorite sides. Enjoy!

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
