COOKING WITH CLORIS -- SLOW-COOKED CHICKEN BREASTS WITH MANGOES AND CRANBERRIES

SLOW-COOKED CHICKEN BREASTS WITH MANGOES AND CRANBERRIES

As you all know, with my hectic schedule I love dinners that cook themselves. Today Cloris shares another one of her make-ahead-in minutes dinners.

SLOW-COOKED CHICKEN BREASTS WITH MANGOES AND CRANBERRIES
 (serves 4)

Ingredients:
4 skinless, boneless chicken breasts
3 oz. dried mangoes
1/2 cup dried cranberries
4 large carrots, peeled
1/4 cup barbecue sauce
3/4 cup chicken broth

Place chicken breasts, dried mangoes, cranberries, and carrots in a slow cooker. Mix together barbecue sauce and chicken broth. Pour over chicken, fruit, and carrots. Cook on low 6-8 hrs.

You can literally prepare this dinner in less than 5 minutes before going to work. Serve with cous cous, minute brown rice, or bowtie noodles and you’ve got dinner. Readers, what’s for dinner at your house tonight?
