Guacamole Chicken Sammies

I made these for dinner tonight. FOR SURE will make them again. YUM! Make your crockpot your best friend. On those days when take-out would be oh-so-convenient, home-cooked would be tastier and healthier, so use your imagination (or my blog!) and create a just-as-quick-and-easy-meal to enjoy after work. I literally spent 2 minutes this morning putting the chicken in the crock pot, and then another 10 minutes (maybe) throwing the sammies together. Crock pot cooking really is THAT easy! Enjoy!

Guacamole Chicken Sammies
  • 4-6 chicken thighs (depending on size and how many people you need to feed)
  • 1 cup of your favourite marinade OR 3/4 cup BBQ sauce mixed with 1/4 cup water (*I used a bottle of General Tso marinade I had kicking around. All natural from the health food store. It was okay tasting, so I didn't try to save the drippings....you just want a little flavour on the chicken and moist meat....the rest of the sandwich will speak for itself)
  • s&p
  • 2 tbsp brown sugar
  • Fresh Buns
  • 1 tomato, sliced
  • 1/2 cup Cilantro Mayo (see recipe on here)
  • 1/2 cup Guacamole (you can make my recipe for guacamole in no time)
1. Place chicken thighs in crock pot. Pour marinade/bbq sauce over top, then sprinkle with s&p and brown sugar. Set on low and leave to cook for about 8 hours.
2. Carfeully remove chicken from crock pot and shred. Set aside.
3. Slice buns in half. Spread mayo on one half, and guacamole on the other. Top the mayo a good scoop of shredded chicken, followed by a tomato slice, then top the sammie with the guacamole bun. Serve and ENJOY!
