MELT-IN-YOUR-MOUTH SLOW COOKER CHICKEN

Melt-in-Your-Mouth Slow Cooker Chicken image

This recipe using only three chicken breasts is very economical and super delicious! My kids love it and they are extremely picky. The chicken just melts in your mouth and is so flavorful! Garlic bread and salad goes well with this meal. I always taste before serving so I will know what, if anything more, I need to add such as Parmesan, Italian dressing, or milk if it's too thick, etc.

Time 50m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

Ingredients

4 boneless chicken breasts
1/2 cup parmesan cheese
1 cup Greek yogurt
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 1/2 teaspoons seasoning salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper

Steps:

Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
Spray a baking dish with cooking spray.
Place chicken breasts in baking dish.
Mix all ingredients together and spread over chicken breasts.
Bake for 45 minutes.

Tips:

Brining the chicken breasts: This step is essential for juicy and flavorful chicken. Brine the breasts for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight.
Use a meat thermometer: Cooking chicken to the correct internal temperature is crucial for safety and texture. Insert the thermometer into the thickest part of the breast to ensure it reaches 165°F (74°C).
Don't overcrowd the pan: When searing the chicken breasts, make sure there is enough space between them so they can brown evenly. Overcrowding the pan will result in steamed chicken rather than seared chicken.
Baste the chicken breasts: Basting the chicken breasts with melted butter or olive oil during cooking helps keep them moist and flavorful.
Let the chicken breasts rest: After cooking, allow the chicken breasts to rest for a few minutes before slicing or serving. This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful chicken breast.

Conclusion:

Melt-in-your-mouth chicken breasts are a versatile and delicious dish that can be enjoyed for lunch, dinner, or even as a snack. With the right techniques and a little bit of patience, you can easily create this mouthwatering dish at home. Remember to brine the chicken breasts, cook them to the correct internal temperature, and let them rest before serving. Experiment with different marinades and seasonings to find your favorite flavor combination. Enjoy your melt-in-your-mouth chicken breasts!
