Beer Can Chicken Recipes

This is the easiest and best way to grill a chicken! The meat is incredibly tender and moist with no added fat!

Altered from Cooking Light magazine. I did not dredge the chicken before braising.

Slow Cooked Mexican Fajita Chicken

I read about a recipe for smoked chicken that required grilling a chicken in beer, but since I didn't want to use the grill, I modified it!

fast,low fat,tasty

Something simple - does need more flavor

In the oven or on the grill either way its so moist and yummy!

I use a roasting chicken, I take out the insides, and leave the bone - too much of a hassle to take the bone out. You can leave the skin, but that will add more fat and calories. Also, I use cumin powder, not seed. This is a regular dish in our house. Its very tasty; i usually sprinkle the seasoning in the beer before placing the chicken in the beer. Then I season once more after the third beer is poured.

This is an easy low cal dinner with lots of flavor!

Terrific barbeque chicken that's moist and fat free.

I love the way the beer makes the chicken very moist. (Alcohol evaporates while cooking). I season the chicken ahead of time so that the rub can soak into the chicken.

beer chicken on a sick day

Great served over rice or mashed potatoes.

This recipe makes a great main dish to be paired with a salad or rice. It has a bit of a Mexican flair, but the chicken is both sweet and savory, thanks to the addition of the zero-calorie root beer. For a few extra calories, you can add extra toppings to the tostadas after baking, such as lettuce, fat free sour cream, and diced tomatoes or onions. If you do not want to make these tostadas, this chicken is also delicious by itself over rice or as a taco filling or even in a salad.

chicken thighs and beer

Simple chili recipe which is lightly sweet and hot.

Delicious beer chicken, versatile and easy!

This will be the juciest, moist, chicken you have ever had. I first ate this when I moved to the south and a friend of my husband's made it. I changed it to make it less fattening. I don't really know if this is considered a nutritional meal but it is very good and if you eat the white meat it will be slightly healthier. You can substitute the beer for a can of diet pepsi.
