This recipe is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I simply shred the chicken and add it to the sauce. It's a quick and easy meal that's also very delicious.

I'm not a big fan of lemon, but I decided to give this recipe a try anyway. I'm so glad I did! The lemon flavor was not overpowering at all, and it actually complemented the chicken very well. I will definitely be making this again.

I made this recipe in my slow cooker, and it turned out great. I cooked the chicken on low for 6 hours, and it was fall-off-the-bone tender. The lemon flavor was subtle but noticeable.
