Instructions
 

Prepare the Chicken: Place the chicken breasts in the bottom of the crockpot.

    Mix the Sauce: In a bowl, combine the chili sauce, brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, garlic powder, cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to combine.

      Add Vegetables: Add the diced onions, red bell pepper, black beans, and corn to the crockpot over the chicken.

        Pour the Sauce: Pour the sauce mixture evenly over the chicken and vegetables, ensuring everything is well coated.

          Cook: Cover the crockpot with the lid and cook on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 3-4 hours, until the chicken is tender and easily shreds.

            Shred the Chicken: About 30 minutes before serving, shred the chicken using two forks and stir to mix everything together.

              Prepare the Sliders: Once shredded, serve the chili chicken mix on slider buns.

                Garnish(Optional): Top with sliced jalapeños, shredded cheese, avocado, and fresh cilantro as desired.
