Crockpot Lemon Chicken Recipe

garlic

lemons

salt

black pepper

oregano

boneless, skinless chicken breasts

unsalted butter

chicken broth

lemon juice ((from 1 lemon))

chicken bouillon paste

thyme

parsley (for garnish)

Cut the tops and bottoms off of the garlic heads and lemons. Cut the lemons in half. Place the garlic and lemons in the bottom of the crockpot insert.

Season

Combine the salt, pepper, and oregano in a small bowl. Season both sides of each chicken breast with the seasoned salt mixture.

Brown

Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium high heat. Place the chicken breasts in the skillet to brown, 5 minutes per side.

Transfer

Transfer the browned chicken to the crockpot and place on top of the garlic and lemons.

Whisk

In a pot, whisk the chicken broth, lemon juice, and bouillon together. Pour over the chicken in the crockpot.

Place

Place thyme sprigs on top of the chicken.

Cook

Cover the crockpot and cook on HIGH for 3 hours or LOW for 6 hours. Remove the thyme springs, garnish with fresh parsley, and serve hot.

My whole family loved this. I served it with mashed potatoes and broccoli. YUM!

So much lemon. I followed the recipe exactly and it’s just so bitter.

Full of flavor, super easy. Enough juice at end to make a sauce for side dish. Delish

I used 4 medium lemons juiced and the rinds at the bottom of the pot then added some rosemary and Italian seasoning. The garlic did not melt down so next time I will use the garlic press. When done I added 2 tbsp of corn starch in a bowl with some of the broth whisked and then added back in and cooked on high for 30 minutes. Came out good really good. Love the lemony taste.

Delish! Maybe a tad too lemony! When I make it again, and I will, might leave out the lemon juice. Added a little corn starch to thicken the gravy. Doing low carb, so going to have it over spinach.

Horrible! So bitter! Came home expecting a nice meal, spent an hour trying to salvage this catastrophe, only to end up eating pasta. If I could give negative stars I would. Never again!

Baked Lemon Chicken Recipe

boneless, skinless chicken breasts (*)

lemon juice (from 1 lemon**)

water

honey

Dijon mustard

low-sodium soy sauce (***)

thyme (optional)

Preheat

Preheat oven to 350°F. Add the chicken breasts to an oven-safe baking dish.

Combine

In a jar, add lemon juice, warm water, honey, dijon mustard, and soy sauce. Shake well until the sauce mixture is well combined.

Pour ⅔ of the sauce mixture over the chicken breasts, then sprinkle the thyme over top.

Bake

Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, then carefully remove the pan, flip the chicken breasts, and pour the remaining sauce over top.

Bake for another 10-15 minutes, or until the chicken is thoroughly cooked and lightly golden on top.

Tried this recipe the other night. The only ingredient I didn't have was the sweet soy sauce. I Googled and found a make-your-own - so I did. I also prepared this using frozen breast and thigh (hubby's preference), so I cooked it for an additional 15 minutes (a little too long - next time I'll try 10 minutes). Just wanted to say IT WAS FABULOUS - especially loved the sauce. Even Mr. Picky said "This is a keeper."

I read the recipe a couple of times, but still can't see where the sauce becomes as thick as the picture indicates. It was tasty, but lacked the color and sauce I was looking for. Maybe I'll try it with a little/more honey. Not a bust, for sure, though...
