    Try this in your crock pot. Your guests will want the recipe so make sure to have extra copies of it laying around :happy:

    1 bag (3 pounds) of frozen boneless skinless chicken breasts (or fresh if you have it)
    3 cloves of minced garlic (I use the pre-minced in the jar)
    1/2 cup of tomato juice
    1/2 cup of low-sodium soy sauce
    1/2 cup of veggie or canola oil (I've also tried it with apple juice in place of oil and it was still tasty without all the fat)
    1/2 cup of packed brown sugar

    Place chicken in large crock pot. Mix other ingredients and pour over chicken. Cover and cook on LOW for 6-8 hours (or HIGH for 3-4 hours if short on time)

    It will be so tender that it falls apart when you try to plate it.

    After cooked, I use a soup ladle and get some of the juice out. I use it as my liquid to make brown rice. SOOOOO GOOD!!!

    I have recently discovered it, too. What I have learned is that I can only afford to use it about once a week, and barely even that. Hot dogs and burgers are cheaper, go figure.

    Italian Chicken

    1 bag FROZEN b/s chicken breasts
    1-2 envelopes dry Italian Dressing Mix (I use 2)
    1 bottle or can beer
    Pepproncini peppers to taste (I use 2-4 so my kids will eat it)

    Cook on low for 7-8 hours. Serve with or without a bun.
    We eat it without the bun with a slice of provelone cheese.
    YUMMY!!
    I make something very similar with 1 pkg Italian Dressing mix & 1 pkg onion soup mix, but I've never tried beer in it. I think I will next time!

    One of my favorite crock pot recipes is for either pork or chicken.

    4-6 large chicken breasts trimmed of all fat ( or 4-5 large pork chops trimmed of all fat
    8-10 tomatillos, dry skin removed, washed and quartered
    1 large onion cut in one inch chunks
    2 cans red, black or kidney beans, sometimes I use a canned trio of beans
    6 green chilies, roasted, peeled, seeded, chopped
    2 large tomatoes peeled and seeded. chopped
    2 cups corn
    4-6 cloves garlic, sliced very thin
    1 tsp salt (more depending on your taste)
    Cumin, Chili powder, and italian seasoning to taste
    cook on low 7 hours, remove meat, shred, return to pot
    add white or brown instant rice 30 minutes before serving. I use one package uncle bens boil in bag rice, sometimes I stretch it with 2 bags

    The leftovers from this make a great stuffing for stuffed peppers, especially red peppers! i just add an ounce of cheese in every pepper.

    Occasionally this produces a very bland mix so I will give in and add a chili verde sauce to it after 4 or 5 hours... you never can tell about the fresh tomatillos and chili's!
