Crockpot Basalmic Chicken

Before this recipe I had NEVER cooked ANYTHING in the crock-pot before--but now it is my NEW best friend! So simple and very little involvement--just add ingredients--turn it on and DONE! Throwing something in the crock-pot on a Sunday and having it for the week makes life a lot easier. I knew I wanted a protein for the week, something I could eat on its own or toss on a salad or in a wrap. So I decided to make THIS!

Ingredients:

1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1/2 tsp. of minced garlic
1/2 tsp. of dried rosemary
1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
pinch of kosher salt
1/4 tsp. of freshly ground black pepper

I only used 1 pound of chicken, but you can always reduce or increase the recipe depending on what suits your needs!

Directions:


1. First things first, I coated the boated of the crock-pot with coconut oil (21 Day Fix friendly!).
2. Lay the chicken breasts on the bottom.
3. Sprinkled in 1/2 tsp. of minced garlic, 1/2 tsp. of dried rosemary, a pinch of kosher salt and a 1/4 tsp. of freshly ground black pepper.
4. Then add 1/2 cup of balsamic vinegar.
5. Turn the crock-pot on high and cook for about 2 and a half hours.  
6. Flip the chicken about an hour to an hour & a half in!
7. After about 2 and a half hours, turn the crock-pot down to low and shred the chicken (it was so tender, it took about 2 minutes!).  
8. Let the shredded chicken sit in the vinegar mixture on low for another half hour.  I also added about 2 tbsp. more of the balsamic vinegar.

And that's it!
