Again, I am going to talk about my love for gravy and sauces. The gravy with this Slow Cooker Lemon Chicken is awesome! Even without the lemon juice! I did that once and loved it. The lemon juice just makes it taste better. With different vegetables this dish works beautifully, every time! No matter what vegetables you choose to use this Slow Cooker Lemon Chicken tastes fantastic!
I just love easy meals like this! Slow Cooker Lemon Chicken is perfect to throw in your slow cooker and return, cook some rice or pasta and serve! We usually include a salad but truthfully that is up to you!
