Lemon Chicken Supreme

Coming home to a healthy crockpot meal on a busy day is a huge sense of relief for me!

Today I will share an amazing recipe that I found on MommySavers website and tweaked it a bit to how I made it for my family.  

Lemon Chicken Supreme.  I made this for my family and served over asparagus, but it will also pair well with broccoli or green beans. A time saver is to make sure the broccoli is washed and cut that morning or night prior.  You can steam it prior to serving dinner or if you are really short on time steam it the night before.  That way it is ready to go, when you serve your meal.

Here are the ingredients you will need to make this dish:

1 (3lb)fryer chicken,whole or pieces
1 tsp oregano
1/2 tsp rosemary (I use fresh)
3 garlic cloves, minced
2 Tbs butter (I use unsalted)
1/4 c chicken broth
1/4 c lemon juice ( I use fresh squeezed lemon juice and slice lemons as well)
I use sea or himalayan salt and pepper

Wash chicken, pat dry,season w/salt and pepper; sprinkle half of oregano, rosemary and garlic inside cavity of chicken,melt butter in frying pan and brown chicken-transfer to crock pot- sprinkle w/rest of oregano, rosemary and garlic; add sherry to frying pan and stir to loosen brown bits- pour into slow cooker.
Cover, cook on LOW 7 hours,add lemon juice and cook 1 more hour,transfer chicken to cutting board; skim fat from juices and serve over chicken.

This can easily be 21 Day Fix Approved!

Enjoy this meal!

  1. Do I add the chicken broth when I put the chicken in the slow cooker? And how much sherry should I use?
