Slow Cooker Lemon Garlic Chicken & Veggies
Description
In this dish, chicken breasts are layered at the bottom of the slow cooker, seasoned simply with salt, pepper, and thyme. Quartered red potatoes and trimmed green beans are added atop the chicken, followed by minced garlic, pieces of butter, and fresh lemon juice. The ingredients cook on low heat for six hours, allowing the lemon and garlic to infuse the chicken and vegetables slowly. The potatoes and beans become tender without losing texture, while the chicken remains moist from the butter and slow cook process.
The flavor is light and fresh thanks to the lemon juice combined with aromatic garlic and thyme. The simplicity of the seasoning lets the natural taste of the chicken and vegetables shine. This meal requires little preparation and can serve as a wholesome dinner with minimal cleanup.
