Slow Cooker Lemon Butter Garlic Chicken
5 steps
Prep:10min
For a dinner so simple, this slow-cooker lemon garlic-butter chicken is surprisingly delicious. The final dish is richly lemony and buttery with a robust herby broth and tender cooked chicken thighs all in one dish. The smells from the slow cooker alone are worth making the recipe for.
