How to Make Beer Bbq Chicken Sandra Lee
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Season 2 lbs of boneless, skinless chicken thighs with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
Working in batches, brown the chicken on both sides until lightly golden brown (about 2-3 minutes per side).
Transfer the browned chicken to a 4- to 5-quart slow cooker.
Add 1 medium onion, chopped, to the slow cooker.
In a medium bowl, whisk together 12 ounces of dark beer (stout or porter recommended) and 1 cup of your favorite BBQ sauce.

Cover the slow cooker and cook on high for 3-4 hours or on low for 7-8 hours, or until the chicken is cooked through and easily shreds with a fork.
