Slow Cooker Lemon Chicken And Carrots Recipe

Recipe By The Spruce Eats

Lemon and chicken are wonderful partners. Try this excellent crockpot recipe and serve it over hot rice or noodles to soak up all the sauce. You can make this recipe with chicken breasts, but the cooking time will be less; if you want to use chicken breasts, leave them whole. Check to see if the meat has reached 165 f in about 5 hours cooking on low, depending on how hot your slow cooker cooks. When the chicken is done, remove it and shred or cut into cubes and return to the crockpot for a few minutes. You could also use ingredients other than the carrots. Some cubed yukon gold potatoes or sweet potatoes would be delicious or try parsnips. You could also add another onion if you like. Serve this recipe with a nice crisp green salad or a fruit salad made with produce that's in season. A glass of white wine or some iced tea would be a good accompaniment. For dessert, some brownies are definitely in order. Enjoy this easy meal with family and friends.
