Pulled chicken

Chicken breast and thighs marinated in beer and barbecue sauce, braised slowly over caramelized onions until they shred with a fork.

Steps

1. In a bowl, combine the chicken breast, thighs, beer, paprika, garlic powder, and barbecue sauce. Marinate for at least 1 hour.
2. Slice the onions and soften them in a pan with the butter and the brown sugar, letting them caramelize lightly.
3. Add the chicken, drained from its marinade, and brown it lightly.
4. Pour in the marinade liquid and add the tomato paste, salt, and pepper.
5. Cover and cook very gently for at least 1 hour.
6. Let the chicken cool slightly, then shred it — it will pull apart easily.

Notes

• Let it rest until just warm before shredding.
• Excellent between two slices of lightly warmed crispy schiacciata.
• Servings are an estimate — the source doesn’t state them.
