01 Step

Recipe View 3 hrs Marinate the Chicken: Place the chicken breasts in a non-reactive dish (glass or ceramic). Pour the Italian dressing over the chicken, ensuring each piece is well-coated. Cover the dish tightly and refrigerate for at least 3 hours, or up to 6 hours. (3 hours)

Recipe View 8 mins Sear the Chicken: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, or set your oven to broil. Remove the chicken from the marinade (discard the marinade). Grill or broil the chicken for approximately 4 minutes per side, just until lightly browned. The chicken does not need to be cooked through at this stage. (8 minutes)

Recipe View 40 mins Slow Cook to Perfection: The next day, preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C). Bake the covered chicken for 30-40 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Alternatively, you can use a slow cooker: place the chicken and beer in the slow cooker and cook on low for 2-3 hours, or until cooked through. (40 minutes)

For a richer flavor, use a robust Italian dressing with herbs and spices.
Don't over-marinate the chicken, as the acid in the dressing can make it tough if left for too long.
Feel free to experiment with different types of beer. A lighter beer will impart a more subtle flavor, while a darker beer will add a more pronounced malty note.
Serve the chicken with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a fresh salad.
