Creamy Garlic-Lemon Chicken image

I needed an easy way to prepare my family's favorite meal, lemon chicken, and this recipe is it! My entire family loves this rich slow-cooker dish, and everyone who eats it asks for the recipe-it's a keeper. I serve the chicken over a bed of rice or couscous and spoon some of the creamy sauce over the top.-Nan Slaughter, Sammamish, Washington

This dish was okay. The chicken was cooked well, but the sauce was a bit too salty for my taste.

I wasn't a big fan of this dish. The chicken was a bit dry and the sauce was too bland for my taste.
