There's this really great girl named Cindy, whose site I've been lurking at for ages. Cindy has LOTS of friends (yes, I'll admit it, I'm a wee bit jealous of the fact that everything she posts, even what she coins as her "most boring post...ever written" gets AT LEAST a dozen comments - usually more up around 20). One of Cindy's friends (I have no idea if they're real or cyber buddies, but really, what's the difference these days?) is Lysa TerKeurst. Yes, the author!!! The very funny, very real, totally cool woman who inspires millions of others to draw closer to God.
I think in order to make us all feel better about ourselves, Lysa confessed to feeding her family Chef Boyardee Pizza in a Box on a regular basis! God bless, Lysa! Due to her culinary challenges, Lysa is hosting a recipe swap. Yay! I sooooo need some new ideas around here.
So here's what's for dinner tonight (well, by the time I got this posted, the meal was served LAST night - it was deeeelicious): BBQ Chicken Breasts.
This is an easy crock pot recipe for those busy crazy days.
Mix together (in a bowl or right in the crock pot) -
large onion, chopped (I seldom have onions, so I use a generous portion of dried/ dehydrated minced onion)
1 cup ketchup
1 cup water
1/2 cup vinegar
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1 tsp worcestershire sauce (can I confess that I've never had this and simply add soya sauce to every recipe that calls for it)
1 tsp salt.
Add as many boneless, skinless chicken breasts as you'd like (around here it's 6 for just family or more for guests, and I never need to make more sauce - this is enough).
Cook on high for about 6 hours.
Serve with microwaved baked potatoes or minute rice (mmmm, minute rice is really good for soaking up the sauce).
BTW, I use this recipe for virtually ALL BBQ flavored foods - spareribs, hamburgers when they need to be made ahead and kept moist...
Enjoy!
