Tasty Thursday #101: Slow Cooker Lemon Garlic Chicken

Welcome back to Tasty Thursday!!

Now that my husband has turned me into a lemon fiend...I'm always searching for any kind of lemon garlic recipe out there. I love to use my slow cooker too...and anything that can include pasta - oh heck yes! The whole family really loved this recipe. The chicken was very creamy and flavorful :)

What you need:

• 1 tsp. oregano

• 3 Tbsp. fresh lemon juice
• 2 cloves minced garlic
• 1 tsp. chicken bouillon granules
• 1 tsp. fresh parsley, chopped

• Rice or pasta, for serving

Directions:

1. Mix together oregano, salt, and pepper in a small bowl and rub onto chicken.
2. Melt butter on skillet over medium and brown chicken for 3 to 5 minutes on each side, then remove to crockpot.
