I Can Make It Gluten Free From Scratch! - Yummy Pulled Chicken Sliders

I'm always on the look out for a delicious, easy to make weekend meal.  These  pulled chicken sliders will have your family asking for more!  When my husband was helping a friend paint their house this summer, I put all of this in my crock and brought it over for dinner. Cole slaw, watermelon,  and potato chips make this a perfect Saturday supper. 

I modified this sauce recipe when I made it last year, and sorry I don't remember where my daughter got that initial recipe. I really like making sauces from scratch!!  For this recipe I used Trader Joe's chicken breast tenderloins, and one 2.5 bag was enough for 5 people and 3 of them were ravenous hard-working men!! And I still had enough for leftovers. 


 

Pulled Chicken Sliders

1.  Rinse 2.5 pounds of Trader Joe's chicken breast tenderloins.

2.  Chop 1 onion and 1/2 of a large bell pepper.

3.  Put the chicken tenderloins into a crock pot.  Put the chopped vegetables on top and cook on low for 2 to 3 hours.  Drain off all the liquid.

4.  Meanwhile prepare this amazing from scratch sauce - In a bowl put: (cover until needed)
(1)  1 1/2 cups of ketchup
(2)  1/2 cup of balsamic vinegar
(3)  1/4 cup of agave syrup and 1/3 cup of brown sugar
(4) 1 T g-f Worcestershire sauce, 1 T of Dijon mustard.
(5)  Mince 1 clove of garlic
(6) 1 teaspoon of salt and 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper.

5.  After draining the liquid off the chicken, pour the sauce over the top of the chicken and let the chicken cook for 4 to 5 hours on low. 

6.  Use a fork and shred the chicken.  Mix until all the chicken is covered with sauce. 

7.  Taste and make any adjustments. (I love it the way it is!)


These sliders are delicious with a bit of KFC Copycat Cole Slaw on top.
