HERBED LEMON CHICKEN IN A CROCK POT / SLOW COOKER



Herbed Lemon Chicken in a Crock Pot / Slow Cooker image

This is a lemon herb garlic chicken dish which is made in a slow cooker to contain it's natural flavours. When we served it the meat fell away from the bone. If you wish to increase the celery and carrot you may do so without dramatically change the flavour of the dish. I normally remove the skin off the drumstick, which I recommended with this dish but feel free to leave it on. Everyone enjoyed it in our house hold, hope you will enjoy it.
