@Chi-town girlSounds delish!  If you like lemony chicken dishes two recipes that are in our rotation are really good. Blue Jean Chef's Lemon Chicken Orzo Spinach skillet dish and Martha Stewart's Chicken Za'atar Potatoes Red Onion Kale sheet pan dish.  Both so yummy.

Per repeat request, this weekend I'm going to make the Olive Garden Chicken Crockpot recipe I posted a short while ago  And spaghetti + garlic bread, tossed salad. We'll be watching football and doing home chores

 

I've added this Lemon Chicken crockpot recipe to my files for a future meal. What sides would you serve with it? Roasted potatoes? Mashed potatoes? Rice? Asparagus or green beans?


I also think it needs more lemon than the recipe-- I want it to be super lemony

 

For the bouillon, I prefer to use Better Than Bouillon. Thrilled that Costco sells the big jar at a great price

Slow-Cooked Lemon Chicken

TOTAL TIME: Prep: 20 min. Cook: 5-1/4 hoursYIELD: 6 servings.
 

Ingredients

  • 6 bone-in chicken breast halves (12 ounces each), skin removed
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon seasoned salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 3 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 teaspoon chicken bouillon granules
  • 2 teaspoons minced fresh parsley
  • Hot cooked rice

Directions

  • 1. Pat chicken dry with paper towels. Combine the oregano, seasoned salt and pepper; rub over chicken. In a skillet over medium heat, brown the chicken in butter; transfer to a 5-qt. slow cooker. Add water, lemon juice, garlic and bouillon to the skillet; bring to a boil, stirring to loosen browned bits. Pour over chicken.
  • 2. Cover and cook on low for 5-6 hours. Baste chicken with cooking juices. Add parsley. Cover and cook 15-30 minutes longer or until meat juices run clear. Serve with rice. (If desired, cooking juices may be thickened before serving.)

Making this lemon crock pot chicken recipe this weekend (+ extra lemon) with the Ina Lemon Capellini pasta, steamed/sautéed green beans & garlic bread 

 

Will post my review regarding the tweaks we discussed for the chicken recipe
