# Ingredients:

01 - 3 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts

02 - 1 1/2 cups barbecue sauce, such as Sweet Baby Ray's Honey BBQ

03 - 1/2 medium onion, grated with juices retained

04 - 1 tablespoon olive oil

05 - 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

# Instructions:

01 - Add barbecue sauce, grated onion with its juices, olive oil, Worcestershire sauce, and brown sugar to a 5 to 6 quart slow cooker. Stir thoroughly to blend.

02 - Place chicken breasts in the slow cooker, turning to ensure each piece is well coated with the barbecue mixture.

03 - Secure the lid and cook on high for 2 to 3 hours or on low for 6 to 7 hours. For smaller chicken pieces, check for doneness sooner. Chicken is fully cooked when it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F and shreds effortlessly.
