Slow Cooker Lemon Pepper Chicken
Prep time
Cook time
Total time
Serves: 4-6
Ingredients
- 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
- ¼ c flour
- 1 t pepper
- ¼ c butter
- 1 package dry italian dressing/seasoning mix
- ½ c fresh lemon juice
- ½ c chicken broth
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Prepare your chicken by rinsing it and trimming the fat. Since the chicken breasts that I buy are always huge, I cut them in half making them more like tenders.
- In a shallow dish, combine the flour and pepper. Coat the chicken in the flour. Melt the butter in a saucepan on your stovetop over medium heat.
- Once melted, brown each side of the chicken, but not cooking it throughout because you will be putting them in the crockpot. You just want them to have a nice golden brown breading on each side.
- Spray crockpot with cooking spray and place the chicken into the crockpot. Sprinkle the Italian seasoning package top of the chicken. Mix together the lemon juice and chicken broth. Pour over the chicken and seasonings. Cook on low for 3-4 hours. Enjoy!
Notes
I try to use an Italian seasoning mix from a natural foods store to avoid artificial or natural flavoring (which isn't that natural) and msg. Recipe source: therecipecritic.com
