  • 1/4 teaspoon ground pepper
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried parsley
  • Juice from 1 lemon
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Slow Cooker: Start by lightly oiling the interior of your slow cooker to ensure that the chicken doesn’t stick to the base.
  2. Layer the Chicken: Gently place the boneless chicken breasts into the slow cooker, ensuring they are laid out flat.
  3. Seasoning: Evenly sprinkle the chicken with dried oregano, salt, and pepper.
  4. Add Garlic and Parsley: Sprinkle the minced garlic and dried parsley over the chicken, spreading them out for even flavor distribution.
  5. Add Liquids: Pour the freshly squeezed lemon juice and chicken broth over the chicken, ensuring all pieces are adequately drenched.
  6. Cook: Cover the slow cooker with its lid and set it to cook on low heat. Let it cook undisturbed for about 6 hours.
  7. Serve: Once the cooking time is complete, carefully open the slow cooker and check the chicken’s tenderness. It should be soft, juicy, and infused with the flavors of lemon and garlic.
