Slow Cooker Lemon Garlic Chicken

Slow Cooker Lemon Garlic Chicken

If you have Mrs. Dash Lemon Pepper, you can use 1/2 teaspoon of that instead of the one black pepper. Just delete 1 tablespoon of the lemon juice and increase the water by a tablespoon.

1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
2 pounds skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
1 tablespoon canola oil
1/4 cup water
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 teaspoons minced garlic
1 teaspoon low-sodium chicken broth powder or bouillon granules
1 teaspoon chopped fresh parsley

In a small bowl, mix oregano, salt, and black pepper together, then sprinkle the mixture evenly over the chicken pieces.
Add canola oil to a large, nonstick skillet and start heating over medium heat. When hot, add chicken pieces and brown on both sides (about 3 minutes per side).
Place chicken pieces in slow cooker. Add water, lemon juice, garlic, and chicken broth powder to the skillet, and bring the mixture to a gentle boil. Pour the lemon juice over the chicken in the slow cooker and cover with lid.
Cook on HIGH for 3 hours or LOW for about 6 hours. Sprinkle the parsley on top of the chicken about 15-30 minutes before the end of the cooking time.
Serve with cooked pasta or steamed brown rice.

Creamy Crockpot Chicken

Creamy Crockpot Chicken

chicken pieces (I use the breast as it is the only piece of chicken that I buy)
1 can Cream of Chicken Soup
1 small can mushrooms
1/4 cup water or cooking wine
8oz sour cream
1/4 cup flour

Mix the soup, mushrooms and wine and put in crockpot, add chicken.
Cook on low 9-10 hours or until done (I always add the chicken when it is
still frozen so it takes longer, not sure how long it will take if it is
thawed first).

Once chicken is cooked remove from pot (it will fall apart so you may
want to use a spoon) and keep warm. Place sauce in a pan on stovetop.
Mix sour cream and flour together and then add to sauce. Cook and stir
until thickened. Serve over chicken with rice or spaghetti.
